Summary
Abstract: The Dynamics and Chemistry of Marine Stratocumulus (DYCOMS-II) is the
name given to a field campaign which proposes to collect data for the
purposes of testing large-eddy simulations of nocturnal
tratocumulus. DYCOMS-II is based on measurements taken from the NCAR
EC-130Q in and around nocturnal marine stratocumulus. The experiment
consists of 9 flights out of North ... View entire text
