  1. 21. Improving the understanding of cloud radiative heating

    Författare :Erik Johansson; Abhay Devasthale; Michael Tjernström; Annica M. L. Ekman; Robert Pincus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; clouds; radiative effects; upper troposphere-lower stratosphere; atmospheric circulation; remote sensing; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Sammanfattning : Clouds play an essential role in regulating Earth’s radiation budget by reflecting and absorbing energy at different spectra. As they interact with radiation, they can radiatively heat or cool the adjacent atmosphere and the surface. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Molecular Clouds in Starburst Galaxies

    Författare :Susanne Aalto; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : Starbursts in the centres of galaxies are believed to be caused by funneling of gas towards the inner regions. Gravitational interactions between galaxies are known to cause vast rearrangements of their structure as well as induce bursts of star formation in their nuclear regions. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Aerosol–cloud interactions in a warming Arctic

    Författare :Linn Karlsson; Paul Zieger; Radovan Krejci; Annica M. L. Ekman; Birgit Wehner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosols; clouds; aerosol-cloud interactions; Arctic; climate; field studies; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric aerosol particles are small liquid or solid particles suspended in the air. They are present in the atmosphere all around us and affect the planetary energy balance by scattering and absorbing radiation and by interacting with clouds. In model projections of future climate, aerosol–cloud interactions contribute a lot of uncertainty. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Remote sensing of ice clouds : synergistic measurements and radiative transfer simulations

    Författare :Gerrit Holl; Gerald Mace; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rymdteknik; Space Technology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis primarily considers the spaceborne remote sensing of ice clouds and frozen precipitation. Ice clouds are important for hydrology and for the Earth’s radiation budget, but many properties are difficult to measure, in particular using spaceborne instruments. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Atmospheric Production and Transport of Cosmogenic 7Be and 10Be

    Författare :Abdulhadi Kulan; Ala Aldahan; Göran Possnert; Raimund Muscheler; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Earth sciences; Aerosols; Atmosphere; Cosmogenic Be-7 and Be-10; Cs-137; Clouds; Sweden; Europe; Geovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the atmospheric distribution of the cosmogenic isotopes 7Be (half-life 53 days) and 10Be (half-life 1.51 million years) as well as the anthropogenic isotope 137Cs (half-life 30 years) in aerosols and precipitation. LÄS MER
