A Comparison of Turbulence Measurements Made by a Hot-Film Probe, a Bivane, and a Directional Vane in the Atmospheric Surface Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-dimensional hot-film probe, a Vector Vane, and an Aerovane were used to measure the mean wind speed and turbulence structure in the atmospheric surface layer at a location on the south shore of Long Island. A ...
Diffusion Measurements in the 10–100 km Range
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent studies of particulate and gaseous materials in the atmosphere have raised important questions about diffusion at distances of 10?100 km. A photometric densitometer, initially developed for a quantitative study of ...
Vertical Velocity Variances and Reynold Stresses at Brookhaven
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The response characteristics obtained through wind tunnel tests of the Brookhaven National Laboratory bivane are presented and used in correcting the measured values of (??2/u*2), the variance of the vertical wind velocity ...
An Acid Rain Study in the Washington, D.C. Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A field study in the Washington, D.C. area explored the impact of urban emissions and mesoscale meteorology on precipitation chemistry. The study was a follow-up to an earlier, considerably more industrialized, study in ...
