Do GHOST Balloons Measure Eulerian Mean Velocities?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It is suggested that Eulerian mean velocities and eddy fluxes are not necessarily identical with those observed by (quasi-Lagrangian) GHOST balloons. Although a general relationship between the two sets of variables has ...
An Evaluation of Eddy Flux Variation in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An evaluation is made of the typical variation with height and time of mean and eddy flow of momentum in the atmospheric boundary layer using carefully determined wind profile data obtained over a separation of 200 m in a ...
Eddy-Flux Measurements over a Small, Irrigated Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the summer of 1961, the vertical transfer of water vapor and sensible heat was determined at a height of 4 m over an irrigated field at Davis, Calif. Simultaneous determinations of evaporation at the surface were ...
Automatic Eddy-Flux Measurement with the Evapotron
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Evapotron, an instrument designed to measure vertical fluxes of heat and water vapor in the lower atmosphere, is described. Completely transistorized, the instrument consumes 50?100 watts and can be operated by a ...
The Fluxatron—A Revised Approach to the Measurement of Eddy Fluxes in the Lower Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As a result of experience gained with the Evapotron in the measurement of eddy fluxes, a new instrument called the Fluxatron has been developed. The computing efficiency has been improved by filtering out slow eddies which ...
On the Direct Determination of the Turbulent Heat Flux Near the Ground
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The results of a heat flux comparison experiment carried out at Hay, New South Wales, Australia, during May 1966 using a sonic anemometer thermometer (SAT), Fluxatron and Evapotron are reported. The instruments agree with ...
