Near-Global Survey of Effective Droplet Radii in Liquid Water Clouds Using ISCCP Data.
TL;DR: In this paper, a method based on a complete radiative transfer model for Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)-measured radiances is described for retrieving cloud particle radii in liquid water clouds from satellite data currently available from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a description of the ModelE2 version of the GISS General Circulation Model (GCM) and the configurations used in the simulations performed for the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5).
Book
Multiple Scattering of Light by Particles: Radiative Transfer and Coherent Backscattering
TL;DR: Theoretical applications of radiative transfer theory have been discussed in this paper, where the authors have proposed a number of applications, such as coherent backscattering, statistical averaging, and macroscopically isotropic and mirror-symmetric scattering media.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greenhouse effects due to man-made perturbations of trace gases
TL;DR: A one-dimensional radiative-convective model for the atmospheric thermal structure is used to compute the change in the surface temperature of the earth for large assumed increases in the trace gas concentrations; doubling the N2O, CH4, and NH3 concentrations is found to cause additive increases inthe surface temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiative forcing of climate by changes in the vertical distribution of ozone
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional radiative-convective equilibrium model of surface-temperature changes induced by changes in the vertical distribution of O3 in the atmosphere is parameterized and applied to measurement data for the northern midlatitudes during the 1970s.
