Examination of a Wind Profile Proposed by Swinbank
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Micrometeorological measurements made during Project Prairie Grass have been used in an examination of a theoretical model proposed by Swinbank to describe wind speed profiles in the lower portion of the atmospheric boundary ...
Wind Speeds as Measured by Cup and Sonic Anemometers and Influenced by Tower Structure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind tunnel and field experiments have shown that the fast-response three-component sonic anemometer is a highly accurate wind speed sensor. When sonic anemometers were used as reference sensors for wind speed, slower ...
Wind and Temperature Variations during Development of a Low-Level Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The 1428-lt television transmitter tower, located at Cedar Hill, Texas, and instrumented to obtain continuous measurements of wind and temperature at 12 levels from 30 ft to 1420 ft above ground, is proving to be a useful ...
Diffusion in Shear Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the Green Glow program conducted near Richland, Washington, during the summer of 1959, 26 diffusion experiments were conducted during nocturnal inversions. The tracer was released near ground level. Samplers were placed ...
A PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF SUTTON'S HYPOTHESIS FOR DIFFUSION FROM A CONTINUOUS POINT SOURCE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sutton's hypothesis for diffusion from a continuous point source has been evaluated using the data obtained during Project Prairie Grass. It is found that the hypothesis predicts the observed concentration distributions ...
VALUES OF PARAMETERS APPEARING IN SUTTON'S DIFFUSION MODELS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistical summaries are presented of computed values of parameters appearing in a modification of Sutton's diffusion equations. Experimental data used for the computations are those obtained during Project Prairie Grass ...
Results of Recent Field Programs in Atmospheric Diffusion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the summer of 1959, the Green Glow program, consisting of 26 diffusion experiments during nocturnal inversions, was conducted at the Atomic Energy Commission's Hanford Site near Richland, Wash. The tracer, zinc ...
