RISSingle-Doppler Velocity Retrievals with Phoenix II Data: Clear Air and Microburst Wind Retrievals in the Planetary Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new three-dimensional single-Doppler velocity retrieval is introduced and tested with reflectivity and radial velocity data gathered during the Phoenix II field program near Boulder, Colorado. This retrieval is based on ...
Cooled Spray Technology for Particulate Reduction in a Heavy-Duty Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cooled spray (CS) technology passively reduces particulate matter (PM) emissions from diesel engines compared to non-CS-equipped diesel engines. CS inserts are mounted near the injector nozzle and control mixing so that ...
Constructing a Merged Cloud–Precipitation Radar Dataset for Tropical Convective Clouds during the DYNAMO/AMIE Experiment at Addu Atoll
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o improve understanding of the convective processes key to the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) initiation, the Dynamics of the MJO (DYNAMO) and the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) MJO Investigation Experiment ...
Comparison of Disdrometer and X-Band Mobile Radar Observations in Convective Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: icrophysical data from thunderstorms are sparse, yet they are essential to validate microphysical schemes in numerical models. Mobile, dual-polarization, X-band radars are capable of providing a wealth of data that include ...
A Technique for Estimating Liquid Droplet Diameter and Liquid Water Content in Stratocumulus Clouds Using Radar and Lidar Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes a technique for estimating the liquid water content (LWC) and a characteristic particle diameter in stratocumulus clouds using radar and lidar observations. The uncertainty in LWC estimate from radar ...
S-Pol’s Polarimetric Data Reveal Detailed Storm Features (and Insect Behavior)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) operates a state-of-the-art S-band dual-polarization Doppler radar (S-Pol) for the National Science Foundation (NSF). This radar has some similar and some ...
Finescale Structure of a Snowstorm over the Northeastern United States: A First Look at High-Resolution HIAPER Cloud Radar Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he newly developed High-Performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for Environmental Research (HIAPER) Cloud Radar (HCR) is an airborne, W-band, dual-polarization, Doppler research radar that fits within an underwing pod ...
Use of the Earth’s Surface as a Reference to Correct Airborne Nadir-Looking Radar Radial Velocity Measurements for Platform Motion
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA technique for correcting radar radial velocity Vr in airborne, nadir-pointing radar data using the surface of Earth as a reference is proposed and tested. Operating airborne Doppler radars requires correcting the ...
Finite Element Modeling of Planus and Rectus Foot Types for the Study of First Metatarsophalangeal and First Metatarsocuneiform Joint Contact Mechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The foot is a highly complex biomechanical system for which finite element (FE) modeling has been used to evaluate its loading environment. However, there is limited knowledge of first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) and first ...
REFRACTT 2006
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Refractivity Experiment for H2O Research and Collaborative Operational Technology Transfer (REFRACTT), conducted in northeast Colorado during the summer of 2006, provided a unique opportunity to obtain high-resolution ...
