  • Cloud Droplet Number Concentration Product Updated

    This sample plot from the Southern Great Plains Central Facility shows the droplet number concentration for October 30, 2019. New data are available from the Droplet Number Concentration value-added product (NDROP VAP), which has been updated to use additional inputs. This will allow NDROP to be available quicker with better retrievals and to be applied…

  • Droplet Number Concentration Value-Added Product Now Operational

    As aerosol concentration increases, droplet number concentration will increase and droplet size will decrease. Cloud droplet number concentration is an important factor in understanding aerosol-cloud interactions. As aerosol concentration increases, it is expected that droplet number concentration will increase and droplet size will decrease for a given liquid water path. This will greatly affect cloud…
