The Radiative Properties of Small Clouds: Multi-Scale Observations and Modeling
- NOAA ESRL
- CIRES, University of Colorado
Warm, liquid clouds and their representation in climate models continue to represent one of the most significant unknowns in climate sensitivity and climate change. Our project combines ARM observations, LES modeling, and satellite imagery to characterize shallow clouds and the role of aerosol in modifying their radiative effects.
