TWOMEY EFFECT IN SUBTROPICAL STRATOCUMULUS CLOUDS FROM UV DEPOLARIZATION LIDAR

Marine stratocumulus clouds are important climate regulators, reflecting sunlight over a dark ocean background. A UV-depolarization lidar on Ascension, a small remote island in the south Atlantic, measured cloud droplet sizes and number concentration using an inversion method based on Monte Carlo (M...
