A Meteorologically Operated Stack Control System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The standard deviation of wind direction and the mean wind speed have been incorporated in to a system for controlling the release of radioactive gaseous wastes from the 200-ft stack of the Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant. ...
Atmospheric Diffusion Studies Near a Lake Shore
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Experiments designed to measure atmospheric diffusion in transitional states have been carried out for several years over the western end of Lake Erie. The concept of diffusion in transitional states, both in general and ...
The U.S.-U.S.S.R. Agreement on Protection of the Environment and its Relationship to the U.S. National Climate Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In 1972 the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. agreed to cooperate in the field of Environmental Protection. A part of this agreement involved the formation of Working Group VIII (WG VIII), which deals with the influence of the environment ...
A Technique for Measuring Atmospheric Diffusion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A technique for measuring atmospheric diffusion with a ?floating grid? system is described. Tracer sampling is accomplished using one or two airplanes flying arcs of circles at selected radial distances from the release ...
Some Restrictive Meteorological Conditions to be Considered in the Design of Stacks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are several restrictive meteorological conditions that are of great importance in the design of stacks. The conditions considered are fumigation, fumigation, aerodynamic downwash, looping and trapping. Each condition ...
Meteorology at the National Science Foundation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Past and present support of research in the atmospheric sciences by the National Science Foundation, current trends in the support programs, and background on the administration of research proposals are discussed in this report.
An Inexpensive Rocket Technique for Obtaining Low Level Wind Profiles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An inexpensive, reusable, cold propellant (no fire) rocket has been adapted so a continuous smoke stream is emitted from the instant of launching to an altitude of 1200 ft. The smoke column is photographed simultaneously ...
Meteorologists' Views About Global Warming: A Survey of American Meteorological Society Professional Members
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: gists and other atmospheric science experts are playing important roles in helping society respond to climate change. However, members of this professional community are not unanimous in their views of climate change, and ...
