RISSurface Meteorology and Air-Sea Fluxes in the Western Equatorial Pacific Warm Pool during the TOGA Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A major goal of the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) was to achieve significantly more accurate and complete descriptions of the surface meteorology and air-sea fluxes in the western equatorial warm ...
A Modified Beam-to-Earth Transformation to Measure Short-Wavelength Internal Waves with an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The algorithm used to transform velocity signals from beam coordinates to earth coordinates in an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) relies on the assumption that the currents are uniform over the horizontal distance ...
A New Look at Calibration and Use of Eppley Precision Infrared Radiometers. Part I: Theory and Application
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The calibration and accuracy of the Eppley precision infrared radiometer (PIR) is examined both theoretically and experimentally. A rederivation of the fundamental energy balance of the PIR indicates that the calibration ...
Evaluation of an Unloading Concept for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Pilot Study in a Small Patient Group
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Joint compressive forces have been identified as a risk factor for osteoarthritis disease progression. Therefore, unloader braces are a common treatment with the aim of relieving pain, but their effects are not clearly ...
