Microphysical simulations of large volcanic eruptions: Pinatubo and Toba
- J. M. English, O. Toon, M. Mills
- Environmental Science
- 27 February 2013
Simulations of stratospheric clouds from eruptions ranging in size from the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo to that of Toba 74,000 years ago have been completed using a 3D microphysical sectional…
Ubiquitous low‐level liquid‐containing Arctic clouds: New observations and climate model constraints from CALIPSO‐GOCCP
- G. Cesana, J. Kay, H. Chepfer, J. M. English, G. Boer
- Environmental Science
- 28 October 2012
Ground‐based observations show that persistent liquid‐containing Arctic clouds occur frequently and have a dominant influence on Arctic surface radiative fluxes. Yet, without a hemispheric multi‐year…
Microphysical simulations of new particle formation in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere
- J. M. English, O. Toon, M. Mills, F. Yu
- Environmental Science, Physics
- 9 September 2011
Abstract. Using a three-dimensional general circulation model with sulfur chemistry and sectional aerosol microphysics (WACCM/CARMA), we studied aerosol formation and microphysics in the upper…
Microphysical simulations of sulfur burdens from stratospheric sulfur geoengineering
- J. M. English, O. Toon, M. Mills
- Environmental Science
- 31 May 2012
Abstract. Recent microphysical studies suggest that geoengineering by continuous stratospheric injection of SO2 gas may be limited by the growth of the aerosols. We study the efficacy of SO2, H2SO4…
Contributions of Clouds, Surface Albedos, and Mixed-Phase Ice Nucleation Schemes to Arctic Radiation Biases in CAM5
- J. M. English, J. Kay, H. Chepfer
- Environmental Science
- 24 June 2014
AbstractThe Arctic radiation balance is strongly affected by clouds and surface albedo. Prior work has identified Arctic cloud liquid water path (LWP) and surface radiative flux biases in the…
Implications of extinction due to meteoritic smoke in the upper stratosphere
- R. Neely, J. M. English, O. Toon, S. Solomon, M. Mills, Jeffery P. Thayer
- Environmental Science, Physics
- 28 December 2011
Recent optical observations of aerosols in the upper stratosphere and mesosphere show significant amounts of extinction at altitudes above about 40 km where the stratospheric sulfate aerosol layer…
Recent anthropogenic increases in SO2 from Asia have minimal impact on stratospheric aerosol
Observations suggest that the optical depth of the stratospheric aerosol layer between 20 and 30 km has increased 4–10% per year since 2000, which is significant for Earth's climate. Contributions to…
Arctic Radiative Fluxes: Present-Day Biases and Future Projections in CMIP5 Models
- J. M. English, A. Gettelman, G. Henderson
- Environmental Science
- 30 July 2015
AbstractRadiative fluxes are critical for understanding the energy budget of the Arctic region, where the climate has been changing rapidly and is projected to continue to change. This work…
Development of a Polar Stratospheric Cloud Model within the Community Earth System Model using constraints on Type I PSCs from the 2010–2011 Arctic winter
- Yunqian Zhu, O. Toon, J. M. English
- Environmental Science, Physics
- 1 June 2015
Polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) are critical elements of Arctic and Antarctic ozone depletion. We establish a PSC microphysics model using coupled chemistry, climate, and microphysics models driven…
