Microphysical and Macrophysical Properties and Processes of Ice and Mixed-Phase Clouds: Linking in Situ, Remote Sensing Observations and Multiscale Models

Session ID#: 156739

Session Description:
Ice and mixed-phase clouds have large impacts on Earth’s climate. Composite analyses of in-situ, remote sensing observations and multi-scale model simulations are needed for understanding their physical properties, radiative effects, and the relative impacts caused by in-cloud processes. We encourage studies that apply model simulations and observations to investigate ice and mixed-phase cloud characteristics and cloud impacts on regional and global climate. In addition, we encourage studies that verify and/or improve retrievals of ice and mixed-phase clouds based on spaceborne and ground-based observations.

Relevant topics include: (1) observationally-based analyses of ice and mixed-phase clouds, in-cloud processes, secondary ice formation, cloud phase distributions from cloud scales to global scale, (2) assessments of ice crystal and liquid droplet microphysical properties, (3) cloud macrophysical characteristics, including spatial heterogeneities and temporal variabilities, (4) sub-grid scale variabilities of relative humidity, water vapor, temperature and vertical velocity in model parameterizations, (5) radiative forcing of ice and mixed-phase clouds from observations, reanalysis data and model simulations, (6) observationally-constrained estimates of climate impacts of ice and mixed-phase clouds.
