Abstract: Radar echo tops of individual cells, integrated over their duration above 7.6 km, are used to define an overall storm magnitude, a growth factor after seeding, and an average seeding rate. The growth factor is then plotted ...

Abstract: The effect of explosively generated shock waves on ice cubes has been investigated in the laboratory. Impact tests on cubes previously exposed to shock demonstrate that the action of the latter weakens the cubes, the effect ...

Abstract: A cloud of small supercooled water droplets was subjected to shock waves of reproducible intensity in the laboratory. Nucleation of freezing occurred only when the gas driving the shock waves was cooled to ?37C or below ...

Abstract: The method of analysis and display of airborne infrared radiometer data is presented. The method involves recording, enhancing, digitizing, filtering, compressing, calibrating and displaying on contour radiation temperature ...

Abstract: Weathereord, a 40-grain detonating fuse containing about 20 per cent of silver iodide, has been evaluated as a cloud seeding nuclei generator in the laboratory, in the field, and in aircraft cloud seeding. Comparative data ...

Abstract: Calorimetric measurements of hailstones in Kenya, Africa, showed that 57% of the samples contained no water; these hailstones were described as hard. The average water content for the remaining samples was 4.2% almost all ...

Abstract: A calorimetric method for measuring the liquid water content of hailstones has been developed. When parameters such as the radiative losses of the system and the changes in heat capacity of the apparatus are eliminated by ...
