The role of cloud phase in Earth's radiation budget
Utilizing 5 years of spaceborne active sensor data from CloudSat and CALIPSO, this study quantifies the individual global radiative contributions of liquid, ice, and mixed-phase …
The Role of Clouds in Modulating Global Aerosol Direct Radiative Effects in Spaceborne Active Observations and the Community Earth System Model
By combining active A-Train spaceborne observations (CloudSat/CALIPSO) with CESM1 model simulations, this study quantifies how cloud overlapping structures mask, alter, and …
