  1. BNL Regional Climate Capabilities & Interests Atmospheric Sciences Division • Impact Models with Observations (ARM, ASP) • Process studies • Parameterization development • Model constraints & validation • Regional climate modeling (NY Blue) • Modeling  ~ Scales we can observe • Assess fidelity of the regional simulation

  2. BNL Process Study Platforms In Situ - Aircraft Aerosol properties Cloud microphysics Radar - Cloud & Precipitation Cloud phase (spectral processing) Microphysical retrievals Satellite - Geostationary Cloud life cycle Cloud type & regimes

  3. Cloud Microphysical Studies Liu, McGraw, Daum, Guo • Develop microphysical basis for improving • parameterizations in order to reduce • uncertainty in climate models • Dispersion Effect • Kinetic potential theory of drizzle formation • Generalization of autoconversion • parameterization

  4. Cloud & Precipitation Radar Studies Jensen, Luke, Johnson, Kollias, Huang ARM MMCR (vertical pencil beam statistics) ARSCL Microbase (& Merged sounding) Scanning Radar (LES domain/GCM gridbox) C-Pol X-Band (CASA) Cloud Tomography
