Observational constraint on a feedback from supercooled clouds reduces projected warming uncertainty
The increase of carbon-dioxide-doubling-induced warming (climate sensitivity) in the latest climate models is primarily attributed to a larger...

Relationship Between Microphysical Characteristics and Turbulence in Winter Clouds
The results of full-scale aircraft studies of the relationship between microphysical characteristics and turbulence in supercooled clouds are...

Clouds dissipate quickly during solar eclipses as the land surface cools
Clouds affected by solar eclipses could influence the reflection of sunlight back into space and might change local precipitation patterns. Satellite...

Opposing comparable large effects of fine aerosols and coarse sea spray on marine warm clouds
Fine aerosols, by acting as cloud condensation nuclei, suppress rainfall and enhance the albedo and coverage of marine warm clouds, thereby partly...

Preconditioning, aerosols, and radiation control the temperature of glaciation in Amazonian clouds
Glaciation in clouds is a fundamental phenomenon in determining Earth’s radiation fluxes, sensible and latent heat budgets in the atmosphere, the...

Measurement of Cloud Water Content from a Research Aircraft
The article is devoted to measuring cloud water content. It considers various designs of sensors to measure liquid and total water content....

Impact of aerosols on deep convective clouds using integrated remote sensing techniques
Remote sensing techniques were used to study the impact of aerosols on deep convective clouds and their abilities to act as cloud condensation nuclei...
-
An underestimated negative cloud feedback from cloud lifetime changes
As the atmosphere warms, part of the cloud population shifts from ice and mixed-phase (‘cold’) to liquid (‘warm’) clouds. Because warm clouds are...

The microphysics of the warm-rain and ice crystal processes of precipitation in simulated continental convective storms
Precipitation in clouds can form by either warm-rain or ice crystal processes, referred to as warm and cold formation pathways, respectively. Here,...

Earth’s atmosphere protects the biosphere from nearby supernovae
Geological evidence indicates that a supernova within 100 parsecs of Earth occurs around once per million years. Such nearby supernovas can produce...

Cloud ice fraction governs lightning rate at a global scale
Lightning flash rate is strongly influenced by cloud microphysics, such as cloud ice properties, but this relationship is poorly constrained. Here we...

Projected amplification of summer marine heatwaves in a warming Northeast Pacific Ocean
Marine heatwaves are expected to become more frequent, intense, and longer-lasting in a warming world. However, it remains unclear whether feedback...
