Lidar-derived particle concentrations in plumes from Arctic leads / Edgar L. Andreas, Martin W. Miles, Roger G. Barry, Russell C. Schnell.
Title: | Lidar-derived particle concentrations in plumes from Arctic leads / Edgar L. Andreas, Martin W. Miles, Roger G. Barry, Russell C. Schnell. |
Author(s): | Andreas, Edgar L. Miles, Martin W. Barry, Roger G. Schnell, Russell C. |
Date: | 1990. |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1990.), Vol. 14 (1990) |
Abstract: | Using airborne lidar, massive plumes of condensate have been observed rising from winter leads. Lidar equation is inverted and lidar backscatter data used to infer particle concentrations within two plumes. Assuming plumes consist of supercooled water droplets of radius 5 μm, typical concentrations of 3 to 6x10⁵ droplets m⁻³ are estimated just above leads. Within plumes, concentrations can be as high as 10⁴ droplets m⁻³ at altitude of 3 km and 200 km downwind of leads. Implications for heat and moisture loss from leads. |
