Sensitivities of a simulated Arctic stratocumulus to aerosol and microphysical parameters

Abstract. Low-level, mixed-phase clouds are a key component of the Arctic energy budget and can impact the extent and thickness of sea ice. These clouds are influenced by aerosols and microphysical processes that can determine the phase partitioning and thereby cloud lifetime and...

A closed-to-open cell mixed-phase cloud transition observed over the Nordic Seas under high aerosol loading and strong surface fluxes

Abstract. Closed-to-open cell mixed-phase cloud transitions within marine cold air outbreaks subjected to strong turbulent surface fluxes remain poorly understood despite their importance to high-latitude climate. The Cold-Air outbreak Experiment in the Sub-Arctic Region (CAESAR)...
