In this survey we consider the impact of turbulence on cloud formation from the cloud scale
to the droplet scale. We assess progress in understanding the effect of turbulence on the …

Cloud entrainment, the mixing between cloudy and clear air at the boundary of clouds,
constitutes one paradigm for the relevance of small scales in the Earth system: By regulating …

Ceilometer measurements of aerosol backscatter profiles have been widely used to provide
continuous planetary boundary layer height (PBLHT) estimations. To investigate the …

We argue that combining direct numerical simulation (DNS) with large‐eddy simulation
(LES) and field studies could accelerate current lines of stratocumulus research. LES allows …

Stratocumulus clouds are the most common type of boundary layer cloud; their radiative
effects strongly modulate climate. Large eddy simulations (LES) of stratocumulus clouds …

High spatial resolution measurements of temperature and liquid water content,
accompanied by moderate-resolution measurements of humidity and turbulence, collected …

An aircraft field study (POST; Physics of Stratocumulus Top) was conducted off the central
California coast in July and August 2008 to deal with the known difficulty of measuring …

Direct numerical simulations of the turbulent temporally evolving cloud-top mixing layer are
used to investigate the role of evaporative cooling by isobaric mixing locally at the …

An unstably stratified flow entering into a stably stratified flow is referred to as penetrative
convection, which is crucial to many physical processes and has been thought of as a key …
