Information - AS1.04 Clouds, Aerosols and Radiation (General Session)
Event Information
Clouds play a key role in climate and weather related issues over a wide range of spatial
and temporal scales. This session aims to link research activities in modeling and observations
of cloud radiative and cloud dynamical/microphysical processes as well as aerosol interactions
with warm, mixed-phase and cirrus clouds. Specific topics of the session are:
- Observations of cloud macro- and microphysical properties
- Observations of the radiative energy budget and cloud radiative forcing
- Observations of aerosol-cloud interactions
- Cloud resolving atmospheric circulation modeling
- Parameterization of cloud microphysics/dynamics/radiation in GCMs
- Aerosol, cloud and radiation interactions in the climate system
- Radiative transfer in clouds
