Research Physics Home Search Advanced Search Atmospheric Physics About the Atmospheric Physics Research Group Faculty: Marshall , Rust, and Stolzenburg Thunderstorm electricity is the main focus of research for the atmospheric physics group at The University of Mississippi. Although this subject has been investigated by many people over the last 250 years, surprisingly little is known of the internal electrical structure of storms or the processes by which storms become electrified. Our group investigates the electrical, dynamical, and precipitation characteristics of thunderstorms mainly through observational methods. During field campaigns, instrumented balloons are launched into thunderstorms to measure the electric field and other internal parameters of the clouds. Our observations are also contributing to a better understanding of fundamental questions in atmospheric electricity. Our electric field data have helped identify a possible lightning initiation process, and they are proving useful to scientists studying sprite and other high-altitude luminous events. In addition, we are collaborating with researchers at Russia's Institute of Applied Physics on studies of the contribution of thunderstorms to the global electrical circuit. Our unique database of nearly 200 soundings through many types of thunderstorms is a rich resource for various extended studies in atmospheric physics.

Current research interests include cloud physics and thunderstorm structure, lightning and atmospheric electricity, the interaction of clouds and climate, middle atmospheric photochemistry, and atmospheric radioactivity. The faculty and students are often active in developing specialized, front-line instrumentation in order to study these phenomena. They may take part in field work often in collaboration with worldwide atmospheric science research efforts in order to gather critical data. They may also develop theoretical models and use such models to interpret their data in the larger setting of the physics of the earth's atmosphere and climate. Current research interests include Cloud physics: from the internal dynamics of clouds (such as convection and ice/rain formation) to their role in global climate patterns.

The University of Adelaide School of Chemistry and Physics You are here: Atmospheric Physics Home Results Field Sites Buckland Park ... Cake Day Roster Research Overview The atmosphere is a complex system in which energy is absorbed, stored, radiated and transported by a rich variety of processes that impact directly on the environment. The Atmospheric Physics group is mainly concerned with the study of the dynamics and structure of the atmosphere from the ground up to a height of about 100 km. Emphasis is placed on ground-based radar and optical studies of the dynamics and structure over a wide range of time scales, but other related areas, such as meteor and ionospheric physics, are also of interest. There is particular interest in the development of new hardware and data analysis techniques, as well as on data acquisition and interpretation. Many of the techniques developed by the group have become widely adopted on a world-wide basis as the standard methods in the field. The Atmospheric Physics group carries out its research at a number of field sites in the southern hemisphere. The main field station at Buckland Park , located some 40 km north of Adelaide, is used for both radar and optical studies. Buckland Park, which is some 150 hectares in area, is the site of three radars, one of which operates at 2 MHz and the other two at 54 MHz, as well as the optical instruments. The

About Us People Contact Sitemap ... Atmospheric Dynamics (Prof. Heini Wernli) Atmospheric Physics (Prof. Ulrike Lohmann) Prof. Ulrike Lohmann 's research in short: Full size video in swissinfo.ch (english) Video in deutsch (swissinfo.ch) The Atmospheric Physics group focuses on the role of aerosols (also known as particulate matter) and clouds in the climate system. Clouds are one of the largest uncertainties for climate change predictions ( IPCC, 2007 ). They scatter solar radiation causing a cooling (albedo effect of clouds) but absorb and re-emit terrestrial radiation causing a warming (greenhouse effect of clouds). While the cooling effect of clouds dominates for low-level clouds (stratus, stratocumulus), the warming effect dominates for high-level ice clouds (cirrus). Additionally anthropogenic aerosols such as sulfate, nitrate, soot and organic compounds can modify cloud microphysical properties. An increase in aerosols causes an increase in the number of cloud droplets. This causes the cloud to appear brighter from space (indirect cloud albedo effect), which offsets some of the greenhouse gas warming. More and smaller droplets also retard rain formation, which has implications for the amount and distribution of precipitation. Similarly aerosols also influence ice and mixed-phase clouds. Here much less is known about the relevant freezing processes and which aerosols act as centers for ice crystals, so-called ice nuclei (IN). Therefore it is not even clear yet if an increase in aerosols will also cause mixed-phase and ice clouds to be brighter and to precipitate less or if the contrary happens.
