Some Measurements of Snow Pellet Bulk-Densities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In-cloud collections of snow and ice pellets in summer cumulus clouds have been made on Project White-top. These collections provided an opportunity for measuring the bulk densities of 129 snow pellets and ice pellets. ...
Phloroglucinol Seeding of Undercooled Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of twelve releases of phloroglucinol were made into stratus clouds at temperatures of ?7C to ?17C. Showers produced by dry ice seeding were used to identify particular spots in the layer clouds from which the exact ...
What is the Role of Ice in Summer Rain-Showers?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent observations indicate that ice pellets and snow pellets are present in most convective clouds in the Central United States by the time these clouds reach top temperatures of ?10C. The attendant circumstances raise ...
The Midwest Snow Storm of 8–11 December 1977
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Conventional surface and upper-air aerological data are combined with radar and aircraft measurements to give a description of a major winter storm that deposited over 69 cm of new snow at Muskegon, Michigan, between 8 and ...
THE WATER AND ENERGY BUDGETS OF THE THUNDERSTORM AND THEIR RELATION TO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A quantitative estimate, based upon data from the Thunderstorm Project, is made of the various water sources and sinks and the energy sources and sinks of an average thunderstorm cell. It is found that a large fraction of ...
