Multiscale Cloud Physics – Lise Meitner Group
Our research is motivated by the complex processes and interactions within the climate system and we develop approaches to capture this complexity.
We especially explore the multiscale nature of the atmosphere as manifested through clouds: Microscopic cloud droplets and cloud ice form with the help of even smaller atmospheric aerosols. Zooming out, they fuse into the fractal shapes of individual clouds which puzzle the casual observer. Taking a bird's-eye view from space, we can see that…
