In Situ Observations of the Microphysical Properties of Young Cirrus Clouds**
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In situ measurements made in cold (?35° to ?60°C) cirrus clouds over southern Germany in March 1994 are presented. The clouds appeared to be in an early stage of their life cycle and their properties in many ways resemble ...
Sea-Salt Size Distributions from Breaking Waves: Implications for Marine Aerosol Production and Optical Extinction Measurements during SEAS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors' participation in the Shoreline Environment Aerosol Study (SEAS) involved measurements focused on the coastal aerosol size distribution and related optical measurements, including aerosol light scattering, ...
Drift-Off Study in Drilling Vessels Comparing Numerical Model and Full-Scale Field Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In drilling vessels, the dynamic positioning (DP) system has a great importance for the operation, since it ensures the station-keeping ability for the drilling operation. However, an emergency situation involves ungoverned ...
Performance Characteristics of a High-Sensitivity, Three-Wavelength, Total Scatter/Backscatter Nephelometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As designed in the 1940s by Beuttell and Brewer, the integrating nephelometer offers a direct method of measuring light scattering by airborne particles without assumptions about particle composition, shape, or physical ...
