Session ID#: 12520
Session Description:
By affecting radiative energy flows, low clouds exert a significant influence on Arctic sea and land ice, ocean biogeochemistry, and large-scale atmospheric dynamics. Despite significant advances in understanding Arctic low clouds over recent years, the sensitivity of these clouds to environmental factors is a leading uncertainty in projections of Arctic climate change. In this session, we invite studies that link Arctic low clouds with their environment, including air-sea-land exchanges of aerosols, energy, and moisture as well as interactions between clouds and marine ecological and biogeochemical processes. We welcome contributions that employ a wide range of methodologies, including numerical models and satellite, ground-based, and field campaign measurements. Speakers are encouraged to not only to discuss their recent findings, but to present a slide on the uncertainties that they consider to be key to understanding Arctic low cloud sensitivities and predictions.
