On the Stochasticity of Aerosol-Cloud Interactions within a Data-driven Framework
Xiang-Yu Li, Hailong Wang, TC Chakraborty +4
Aerosol-cloud interactions (ACI) pose the largest uncertainty for climate projections. Among many challenges of understanding ACI, the question of whether ACI is deterministic or s…
Global warming in the pipeline
James E. Hansen, Makiko Sato, Leon Simons +14
Improved knowledge of glacial-to-interglacial global temperature change implies that fast-feedback equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) is 1.2 +/- 0.3°C (2) per W/m. Consis…
Coarse particulate matter air quality in East Asia: implications for fine particulate nitrate
Shixian Zhai, Daniel J. Jacob, Drew C. Pendergrass +19
Coarse particulate matter (PM) is a serious air pollution problem in East Asia. Analysis of air quality network observations in the North China Plain and the Seoul Metropolitan Are…
Large-eddy simulations of marine boundary-layer clouds associated with cold air outbreaks during the ACTIVATE campaign-part 1: Case setup and sensitivities to large-scale forcings
Xiang-Yu Li, Hailong Wang, Jingyi Chen +26
Large-eddy simulation (LES) is able to capture key boundary-layer (BL) turbulence and cloud processes. Yet, large-scale forcing and surface turbulent fluxes of sensible and latent…
Field Evaluation of Column CO2 Retrievals from Intensity-Modulated Continuous-Wave Differential Absorption Lidar Measurements during ACT-America
Joel F. Campbell, Bing Lin, Michael D. Obland +13
We present an evaluation of airborne Intensity-Modulated Continuous-Wave (IM-CW) lidar measurements of atmospheric column CO2 mole fractions during the ACT-America project. This li…
Disagreement among global cloud distributions from CALIOP, passive satellite sensors and general circulation models
Vincent Noel, H. Chepfer, M Chiriaco +5
Cloud detection is the first step of any complex satellite-based cloud retrieval. No instrument detects all clouds, and analyses that use a given satellite climatology can only dis…
