## Abstract Observations from aircraft of the Meteorological Research Flight flying near stratocumulus clouds showed steep inversions and hydrolapses directly above the tops of the clouds. Turbulence was encountered below and in the clouds and up to 300 ft above the cloud top. Above this level no t

## Abstract Aircraft observations of droplets greater than 100 ΞΌ diameter in 20 low layer clouds indicate that these drops can occur in concentrations of approximately 0Β·1 per litre to 10 per litre in clouds of 1,000 ft (300 m) to 7,000 ft (2,100 m) thickness. These observations are presented toget
## Abstract The spatial variability of the liquid water path (LWP) is analyzed from a largeβeddy simulation of the diurnal cycle of stratocumulus clouds as observed during FIRE I. In stratocumulus clouds, the temperature and the total specific humidity cannot fluctuate independently, but are tightl
## Abstract The quality of temperature and humidity retrievals from the infrared Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI) sensors on the geostationary Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) satellites is assessed by means of a oneβdimensional variational algorithm. The study is performed wi
## Abstract During 1955, 46 measurements of frost point and temperature were made at varying altitudes up to about 50,000 ft using a DobsonβBrewer pressurized frostβpoint hygrometer and a flatβplate thermometer mounted on the Canberra aircraft of the Meteorological Research Flight. The general char
