RISCalibration of Johnson–Williams and PMS ASSP Probes in a Wind Tunnel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wet wind tunnel tests have provided calibrations and intercomparisons of the LAMP's cloud liquid water content probes (three Johnson?Williams sensor heads and one PMS ASSP). The tunnel liquid water content was deduced with ...
Aircraft Measurements of Icing in Supercooled and Water Droplet/Ice Crystal Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Icing measurements were carried out in Spain during the Precipitation Enhancement Project experiment in 1979, with an instrumented DC-7 aircraft. The energy balance at the riming surface of a cylinder allows the prediction ...
Ice Accretion on Wires and Anti-Icing Induced by Joule Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study concerns both the formation of ice accreted around wires due to rotation from gravitational and aerodynamic forces, and the anti-icing induced by the Joule effect. The experiments have been carried out in an ...
On the Transition of Contrails into Cirrus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In situ observations of the microphysical properties of upper-tropospheric contrails and cirrus clouds have been performed during more than 15 airborne missions over central Europe. Experimental and technical aspects ...
Effective Radius of Ice Particles in Cirrus and Contrails
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper discusses the ratio C between the volume mean radius and the effective radius of ice particles in cirrus and contrails. The volume mean radius is proportional to the third root of the ratio between ice water ...
The New Zealand Southern Alps Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Southern Alps Experiment is being mounted to study the influence of New Zealand's Southern Alps on local weather and climate. This paper describes these alpine influences and outlines proposed field and modeling ...
