| Summary: | Experiment (FIRE) III, include the following items in order of priority: • the radiative effects of mixed phase and ice phase clouds, aerosols, and cloud-aerosol mixtures • description of basic cloud microphysical properties and how they are influenced by atmospheric thermodynamics and aerosol characteristics • the relative importance of surface and advective fluxes of moisture in the formation of clouds • the sensitivity of the boundary layer clouds to large-scale vertical motion • interactions among turbulence, radiation, and cloud microphysical processes in the evolution of the cloudy atmospheric boundary layer • the radiative effects of the horizontally inhomogeneous summertime stratocumulus clouds over the horizontally inhomogeneous, melting snow/sea ice surface The following material is based on presentations made during the ARM Science Team Meeting concerning the scientific issues to be addressed at the North Slope of |
