Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting global atmospheric ice nuclei distributions and their impacts on climate
Paul J. DeMott,Anthony J. Prenni,Xiaohong Liu,Sonia M. Kreidenweis,Markus D. Petters,Cynthia H. Twohy,Mathews S. Richardson,Trude Eidhammer,D. C. Rogers +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the concentrations of ice nuclei active in mixed-phase cloud conditions can be related to temperature and the number concentrations of particles larger than 0.5 μm in diameter, which reduces unexplained variability in iceuclei concentrations at a given temperature from ∼103 to less than a factor of 10.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurements of heterogeneous ice nuclei in the western United States in springtime and their relation to aerosol characteristics
Mathews S. Richardson,Paul J. DeMott,Sonia M. Kreidenweis,Daniel J. Cziczo,Daniel J. Cziczo,Edward J. Dunlea,Jose L. Jimenez,David S. Thomson,Lowell L. Ashbaugh,Randolph D. Borys,Douglas L. Westphal,Gary S. Casuccio,Traci L. Lersch +12 more
TL;DR: The second ice nuclei spectroscopy (INSPECT-II) campaign was conducted at Storm Peak Laboratory in northwestern Colorado in April and May 2004 as discussed by the authors, where the ice formation activity of submicron particles was measured with a continuous-flow diffusion chamber.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aircraft Instrument for Comprehensive Characterization of Aerosol Optical Properties, Part 2: Black and Brown Carbon Absorption and Absorption Enhancement Measured with Photo Acoustic Spectroscopy
Daniel A. Lack,Mathews S. Richardson,Daniel Law,Justin M. Langridge,Christopher D. Cappa,R. J. McLaughlin,Daniel M. Murphy +6 more
TL;DR: A photo-acoustic aerosol absorption spectrometer (PAS) built for operation on a research aircraft platform is described in this paper, which is capable of measuring dry absorption at 659 nm, 532 nm, and 404 nm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aircraft Instrument for Comprehensive Characterization of Aerosol Optical Properties, Part I: Wavelength-Dependent Optical Extinction and Its Relative Humidity Dependence Measured Using Cavity Ringdown Spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, an aircraft instrument utilizing cavity ringdown spectroscopy for the measurement of aerosol extinction is presented, with a 1-s detection limit better than 0.1 Mm−1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modification, calibration, and performance of the Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer for particle size distribution and volatility measurements during the Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom) airborne campaign
Agnieszka Kupc,Agnieszka Kupc,Christina Williamson,Christina Williamson,Nicholas L. Wagner,Nicholas L. Wagner,Mathews S. Richardson,Mathews S. Richardson,Charles A. Brock +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the modification, calibration, and performance of two commercially available, Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometers (UHSASs) as used on the NASA DC-8 aircraft during the Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom).
