RISInterpretation of the Photometric Measurements of Venus by Mariner 10
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations by the television system on Mariner 10 of solar radiation reflected by Venus are analyzed by means of comparisons with theoretical computations. It is found that the distribution of radiance across the planetary ...
A Simple Method to Compute the Change in Earth-Atmosphere Radiative Balance Due to a Stratospheric Aerosol Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple three-layer model of the earth-atmosphere system, including the ground, troposphere and stratosphere, with their interactions, is developed. The model permits the radiative characteristics of both the troposphere ...
Saharan Aerosols over the South of France: Characterization Derived from Satellite Data and Ground Based Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In July 1983, the summer transport of Saharian aerosols across the Mediterranean Sea was observed. The dust cloud was particularly dense and was clearly detected in A.V.H.R.R. and METEOSAT imageries. Optical thickness and ...
Design of an Experimental Set Up to Study the Behavior of a Flexible Surgical Instrument Inside an Endoscope
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The success of flexible instruments in surgery requires high motion and force fidelity and controllability of the tip. However, the friction and the limited stiffness of such instruments limit the motion and force transmission ...
