The scale problem in quantifying aerosol indirect effects (2011, background): “…with the marine stratocumulus cloud regime, and derive from the Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus Phase II (DYCOMS-II) experiment (Stevens et al., 2003), which took place off the coast of southern California in July of 2001, as well as the Department of Energy (DOE) deployment to…”
Evaluation of Large-Eddy Simulations via Observations of Nocturnal Marine Stratocumulus (2005, methodology): “Previous simulations of this case whose forcing was based on (3) with F0 50 W m 2 and F1 D 0, failed to represent the region of negative skewness near cloud base (Stevens et al. 2003b).”
Evaluation of the aerosol indirect effect in marine stratocumulus clouds : droplet number, size, liquid water path, and radiative impact (2005, methodology): “[6] This research was part of the Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus-II (DYCOMS-II) experiment, an airborne field program conducted during July of 2001 [Stevens et al., 2003].”
Dynamics of Winds and Currents Coupled to Surface Waves (2010, background): “Wave breaking and the subsequent generation of bubbles and spray control gas exchange (D’Asaro & McNeil 2007, Wanninkhof et al. 2009), impact stratocumulus-cloud-deck formation (Stevens et al. 2003), alter ocean acoustics (Melville 1996), and influence the remote sensing of sun glitter (Munk 2009).”
Boundary Layer Depth, Entrainment, and Decoupling in the Cloud-Capped Subtropical and Tropical Marine Boundary Layer (2004, background): “Entrainment is notoriously difficult to measure (see, e.g., Stevens et al. 2003a).”
Boundary Layer and Shallow Cumulus Clouds in a Medium-Range Forecast of a Large-Scale Weather System (2005, background): “…in the climate system, and because of the effect they have on local weather, Sc clouds have been extensively studied in the last few decades (see reviews by Stull 1988; Driedonks and Duynkerke 1989) and are still the subject of large program studies (Brenguier et al. 2000; Stevens et al. 2003).”
Drizzle in Stratiform Boundary Layer Clouds. Part II: Microphysical Aspects. (2005, background): “Recent observations (e.g. Bretherton et al., 1995; Miller and Albrecht, 1995; Yuter et al., 2000; Stevens et al., 2003; Bretherton et al., 2004, see also part I of this study) are demonstrating both ubiquity and energetic importance of drizzle in MBL clouds.”
Drizzle in Stratiform Boundary Layer Clouds. Part I: Vertical and Horizontal Structure (2005, methodology): “…therefore, that recent work has shown that drizzle in stratocumulus clouds tends to occur in intermittent localized patches (Austin et al. 1995b; Vali et al. 1998; Stevens et al. 2003; Comstock et al. 2004, 2005; vanZanten et al. 2005) rather than being uniformly spread through the cloud.”
