… of the nucleation mechanisms that control ice amounts in Arctic clouds has led to
parameterizations that are based more on physical speculation than on observations (Harrington …

Two-dimensional simulations of transition (fall and spring) season Arctic stratus clouds (ASC)
were conducted using a sophisticated cloud resolving model with bin microphysics …

Mixed-phase stratus clouds are ubiquitous in the Arctic and play an important role in climate
in this region. However, climate and regional models have generally proven unsuccessful at …

A cloud-resolving model (CRM) version of RAMS, coupled to explicit bin resolving microphysics
and a new two-stream radiative transfer code is used to study various aspects of Arctic …

Aircraft measurements reveal ice supersaturation statistics in cirrus (ISSs) with broad maxima
around ice saturation and pronounced variance. In this study, processes shaping ISSs in …

This paper is the second in a series of articles describing the new microphysics scheme in
the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS). In this part, a new two-moment …

Observational data collected during the FIRE II experiment showing the existence of bimodal
ice spectra along with experimental evidence of the sia» dependence of riming are utilized …

Abstract Models of ice crystal vapor growth require estimates of the deposition coefficient α
when surface attachment kinetics limit growth and when ice crystal shape is predicted. …

It is common for cloud microphysical models to use a single axis length to characterize ice
crystals. These methods use either the diameter of an equivalent sphere or mass–size …

Results are presented from an intercomparison of single‐column and cloud‐resolving model
simulations of a cold‐air outbreak mixed‐phase stratocumulus cloud observed during the …
