A method for solving relative dispersion of the cloud droplet spectra
The relative dispersion of the cloud droplet spectra or the shape parameter is usually assumed to be a constant in the two-parameter cloud microphysical scheme, or is derived through statistical analysis. Howe...

Impacts of thermodynamic processes over the Tibetan Plateau on the Northern Hemispheric climate
We here report our recent research results on the climatic features of Tibetan thermodynamic functions and their impacts on the regional climates of the Northern Hemisphere. The results show that the thermodyn...

Analysis of the influence of Taihu Lake and the urban heat islands on the local circulation in the Yangtze Delta
A fine-mesh regional meteorological model that suits the Yangtze Delta region was developed. This model was used to simulate some micro weathers, such as the land and sea breezes, land and lake breezes and urb...

Mass exchange between stratosphere and trotosphere over the Tibetan Plateau and its surroundings
Using NCEP dataset we calculate the exchange of mass across the thermal tropopause by the Wei’s method from 1978 to 1997 over the Tibetan Plateau and its surroundings. We also calculate the annual variation of...

Prediction of the trend of total column ozone over the Tibetan Plateau
By using 2-D chemical model, the trend of total column ozone over the Tibetan Plateau is simulated. The results show that from 1980 to 1993, the total column ozone over the Tibetan Plateau decreases; after 199...

Spatio-temporal characteristics of aerosol distribution over Tibetan Plateau and numerical simulation of radiative forcing and climate response
In this paper we have analyzed aerosol distribution over the Tibetan Plateau by using the global monthly mean satellite data of Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment II (SAGE II). The results are as follows...

Characteristics of atmospheric aerosol optical depth variation over China in recent 30 years
This note retrieves the annual and monthly mean 0.75 μm aerosol optical depth (AOD) by using the daily direct solar radiation and sunshine duration data of 47 solar stations from 1961 to 1990. The characterist...
