CLOUDS AND CLIMATE CHANGE2: Transcript

Cirrus Latin for. Robert Wood. , Matthew . Wyant. , Christopher S. . Bretherton. , Jasmine . Rémillard. , . Pavlos. . Kollias. , Jennifer Fletcher, Jayson . Stemmler. ,. . S. . deSzoeke. , Sandra . Yuter. , Matthew Miller, David . Two key impacts. Cloud feedback. Response of clouds to increased CO. 2. Aerosol indirect effects (AIEs). Response of clouds to changes in aerosol particles. Cloud feedbacks. Uncertainty in cloud feedbacks is main source of uncertainty in climate sensitivity. William R. . Cotton. Dept. of Atmospheric Science. Colorado State University. Outline. My background. Lessons learned from Cloud seeding . Engineering clouds and climate. Social/political reactions to cloud seeding and likely response to climate engineering. What is a cloud?. A cloud is a group of water droplets in the atmosphere.. The water vapor condenses during the water cycle to form clouds.. Cirrus Clouds. They are the highest clouds.. They look thin, wispy, or feathery.. (a lot has happened in the last year!). Jen Kay. (. jenkay@ucar.edu. ). NCAR’s. CFMIP/COSP contact. Collaborators: Steve Klein, . Yuying.

Indiana . University . Bloomington. Science Computing Environments. Cirrus. Feathery or tufted. Looks like horse tails. Are found between 6000 and 12,000 meters. Made of ice crystals. May be followed by rain or snow. Cirrus. Stratus. Means sheets or layers. Flat, gray clouds that cover the whole sky. Aerosol-Cloud-Climate Interactions. . Spring Quarter 2015. Logistics.

Explore how the water cycle drives weather.. Discuss the conditions that favor thunderstorms and tornadoes.. Main Idea. Water vapor and changes in temperature are important factors in cloud formation and in precipitation.. Patterns. . Weather . and Climate . . . Big Idea 7: Earth Systems and Patterns. SC.5.E.7.3 - Recognize how air temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind speed and direction, and precipitation determine the weather in a particular place and time. AA.
