RISThe Segregation of Aerosols by Cloud-Nucleating Activity. Part II: Observation of an Urban Aerosol
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The submicron aerosol of metropolitan Seattle was segregated into CCN and non-CCN fractions by a high-flux thermal diffusion cloud chamber in series with a dichotomous separator. Each segregated fraction of the five-hour ...
The Segregation of Aerosols by Cloud-Nucleating Activity. Part I: Design, Construction, and Testing of A High-Flux Thermal Diffusion Cloud Chamber for Mass Separation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We describe a thermal diffusion cloud chamber operated in series with an aerodynamic dichotomous separator that can segregate aerosol particles by their abilities to nucleate cloud droplets. The apparatus takes advantage ...
Retrieval of Atmospheric Optical Depth Profiles from Downward-Looking High-Resolution O2 A-Band Measurements: Optically Thin Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A quasi-linear retrieval was developed to profile moderately thin atmospheres using a high-resolution O2 A-band spectrometer. The retrieval is explicitly linear with respect to single scattering; the multiple-scattering ...
Examination of the Expendable Digital Dropsonde–Derived Vertical Velocities from the Tropical Cyclone Intensity (TCI) Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe newly developed expendable digital dropsonde (XDD) allows for high spatial and temporal resolution data collection in tropical cyclones (TCs). In 2015, a total of 725 XDDs were launched into Hurricanes Marty ...
High-Definition Sounding System (HDSS) for Atmospheric Profiling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he High-Definition Sounding System (HDSS) is an automated system deploying the expendable digital dropsonde (XDD) designed to measure wind and pressure?temperature?humidity (PTH) profiles, and skin sea surface temperature ...
A View of Tropical Cyclones from Above: The Tropical Cyclone Intensity (TCI) Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: gh-resolution observations of Hurricanes Patricia, Joaquin and Marty in 2015 provide new insight into tropical cyclone structure and intensity change as part of the Tropical Cyclone Intensity field program.
