Relating U.S. Cirrus Cloudiness to Surface Temperature and Global Teleconnection Indices
… warming climate should result in increased cloud cover; however effects are not clear in cloud type and geographic coverage. This thesis examines questions regarding this complex problem by focusing on a specific cloud type in a finite geographic region. It used datasets of manually taken …

Cloud Observations From Eos-Terra: From Conception to Interpretation of Cloud Climatologies With a Focus on Small Clouds
Global comparison between the MISR and MODIS cloud masks shows large discrepancies over regions dominated by small clouds. This discrepancy was further explored using an ASTER dataset at 15m resolution over the tropical western Atlantic. On average, MODIS and MISR overestimate cloud fraction by 18% …

Gas Exchange Of Hg Over Wetlands, Effect Of Biochar And Activated Carbon On Hg Emissions From Soil, And Seasonal Concentrations Of Hg In Rain
… Oxford, Mississippi, as a function of season and cloud-type (Chapter 3). Mercury emission fluxes from soils varied diurnally, with higher fluxes during the day, and lower and more stable fluxes during the night. Emission of Hg was correlated (p<0.05) with solar radiation for both soil (r=0.81) and …

Investigation of the positive interaction between the primary and secondary circulation and the roles of different types of precipitation in tropical cyclone formation
… through analyses of satellite data and cloud-representing numerical model simulations. Previous studies have emphasized the importance of the positive feedback between the ocean surface heat fluxes and the primary circulation, but our analyses based on high-resolution numerical model …
