Meteorological Transport of Particulate Material to the South Polar Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of aerosol measurements were made over the Antarctic Continent, during the austral spring of 1977. Vertical profiles indicate that the highest aerosol concentrations are present in the mixing layer, around the ...
A Transect of the Southern Circumpolar Jet Stream
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aitken nuclei and ozone concentrations were measured, in concert with meteorological variables, while flying beneath the core of a jet stream at the 400 mb level. Stratospheric air which subsided to the flight level was ...
Aerosol Measurements Over and Near the South Pacific Ocean and Ross Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Aerosol concentrations were measured at sea along the international date line from 40 to 75°S latitude, and over pack ice, fast ice and unvegetated land surfaces in a 100 km circle immediately south of the Ross Sea. Surface ...
Winter Morning Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results of temperature measurements, which may be applied to inference of winter temperatures in data-sparse areas, are presented. The morning air temperatures during three winters were measured at 80 places in a 10 km ? ...
A Portable, Photo-Recording Aitken Counter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A modern replica of the Aitken counter for detection of aerosol particles smaller in diameter than a half wavelength of visible light has been constructed using modern materials. The instrument employs photographic recording, ...
Observations in Nonurban Heat Islands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The urban heat island is a well-known and well-described temperature anomaly, but other types of heat islands are also infrequently reported. A 10 km ? 30 km data field containing more than 100 individual winter morning ...
A Portable Aerosol Detector of High Sensitivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A portable photoelectric nucleus counter, with similar sensitivity to the Pollak photoelectric nucleus counter with convergent light beam, has been developed and calibrated. This instrument has been incorporated into a ...
Some Physical and Chemical Properties of the Arctic Winter Aerosol in Northeastern Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements spanning much of the particle size spectrum were made on the surface aerosol arriving at Igloolik, Northwest Territories, Canada during late February 1982. Vertical profiles of aerosol particle concentration ...
