    Abstract : A study of air mass origin’s effect on marine stratus and stratocumulus clouds has been performed on clouds north of Scandinavia between 2000 and 2004. The aerosol number size distribution of the air masses has been obtained from measurements in northern Finland. READ MORE

  3. 3. Turbulence Structure of Marine Stratocumulus

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Anna Rune; [2000]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Aircraft measurements are analysed from the “First Lagrangian” of the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment (ASTEX) from south east of the Azores Islands. In this experiment, Lagrangian strategy was used and the marine air mass, that advected southward, was followed during 12 to 14 June 1992. READ MORE
