RISVariations in Precipitation Parameters between Drought and Nondrought Periods in Texas and Some Implications for Cloud Seeding
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An analysis of the possible differences among various rainfall parameters during drought and nondrought periods was undertaken for 12 Texas stations. The division of monthly rainfall amounts into quintiles served as the ...
Stiffness and Strain Properties Derived From Digital Tomosynthesis-Based Digital Volume Correlation Predict Vertebral Strength Independently From Bone Mineral Density
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vertebral fractures are the most common osteoporotic fractures, but their prediction using standard bone mineral density (BMD) measurements from dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is limited in accuracy. Stiffness, ...
Microphysical Properties of Ice Crystal Precipitation and Surface-Generated Ice Crystals in a High Alpine Environment in Switzerland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uring the Cloud and Aerosol Characterization Experiment (CLACE) 2013 field campaign at the High Altitude Research Station Jungfraujoch, Switzerland, optically thin pure ice clouds and ice crystal precipitation were measured ...
Calibration of the Cloud Particle Imager Probes Using Calibration Beads and Ice Crystal Analogs: The Depth of Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper explains and develops a correction algorithm for measurement of cloud particle size distributions with the Stratton Park Engineering Company, Inc., Cloud Particle Imager (CPI). Cloud particle sizes, when inferred ...
The Convective Precipitation Experiment (COPE): Investigating the Origins of Heavy Precipitation in the Southwestern United Kingdom
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Convective Precipitation Experiment (COPE) was a joint U.K.?U.S. field campaign held during the summer of 2013 in the southwest peninsula of England, designed to study convective clouds that produce heavy rain leading ...
