Abstract: The partial differential equation for heat diffusion is numerically integrated by the Runge-Kutta method. Solutions are obtained for the diurnal temperature variation with a bounded coefficient of eddy diffusivity which ...

Abstract: A model for numerical prediction of the 1000-mb surface is developed which includes a term expressing the interchange of sensible heat between the air and the underlying surface as well as the effect of terrain-induced ...

Abstract: Recent developments in numerical weather prediction during the past several years are briefly summarized for the nonspecialist.

Abstract: Vertical velocities are computed at four levels over a Northern Hemisphere grid in addition to a lower boundary value which is applied at terrain pressure and includes effects of frictionally- and terrain-induced vertical ...

Abstract: An empirically adjusted equation based primarily on ?rnason's quasi-barotropic stratified model is used to predict the heights of the 300-, 500-, 700- and 850-mb. levels. The model shows moderate success and appears to ...

Abstract: The effects of the state of the sea on the safety and economy of a ship's route are of considerable concern to the U. S. Navy and other organizations engaged in shipping. This article deals specifically with the problem ...

Abstract: Two advances in the calculus of variations method for minimal time ship routing are described. The first is a scheme for constructing ocean wave field forecasts which may be expected to have considerable skill for perhaps ...

Abstract: Two iterative methods are described for obtaining horizontal winds from the pressure-height field by means of higher-order geostrophic approximations for the purpose of improving upon the geostrophic wind. The convergence ...
