Improved Wind Measurements on Research Aircraft
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Improved techniques for measuring horizontal and vertical wind components and state variables on research aircraft are presented. They include a filtering method for correcting ground speed and position Inertial Navigation ...
A Cable-Borne Tram for Atmospheric Measurements along Transects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A system to make atmospheric measurements from a moving trolley suspended by a stretched cable has been developed. At present, these measurements consist of wind velocity, temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide ...
A Field Intercomparison Technique to Improve the Relative Accuracy of Longwave Radiation Measurements and an Evaluation of CASES-99 Pyrgeometer Data Quality
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Techniques for improving the relative accuracy of longwave radiation measurements by a set of pyrgeometers [the Eppley Laboratory Precision Infrared Radiometer (Model PIR)] are presented using 10 PIRs from the 1999 Cooperative ...
Measurement of Directional Wave Spectra Using Aircraft Laser Altimeters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A remote sensing method to measure directional oceanic surface waves by three laser altimeters on the NOAA LongEZ aircraft is investigated. To examine feasibility and sensitivity of the wavelet analysis method to various ...
