RISCorrections for Response Errors in a Three-Component Propeller Anemometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Methods of eliminating or reducing three types of errors found in the Gill UVW anemometer have been investigated by utilizing field experiments comparing this sensor with a three-component sonic anemometer. The non-cosine ...
Spectral Transfer Functions for a Three-Component Sonic Anemometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The transfer functions which describe the effect of line averaging and path separation on the response of a three-component sonic anemometer have been computed specifically for the Kaijo-Denki PAT 311. These computations ...
Comments on “A General Gaussian Diffusion-Deposition Model for Elevated Point Sources”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comparison is made of the Gaussian diffusion-deposition models of Chamberlain (1953) and Overcamp (1976) with the exact solution of Horst (1977). Overcamp's model is found to be a useful improvement over Chamberlain's ...
An Observational Study of the Evolution of Horizontal Convective Rolls
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive observational dataset encompassing the entire temporal evolution of horizontal convective rolls was obtained for the first time. Florida, Illinois, and Kansas measurements from preroll conditions through ...
Heat Balance in the Nocturnal Boundary Layer during CASES-99
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A unique set of nocturnal longwave radiative and sensible heat flux divergences was obtained during the 1999 Cooperative Atmosphere?Surface Exchange Study (CASES-99). These divergences are based on upward and downward ...
Parameterizing Turbulent Exchange over Sea Ice in Winter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) experiment produced 18 000 h of turbulence data from the atmospheric surface layer over sea ice while the ice camp drifted for a year in the Beaufort Gyre. Multiple sites ...
The Persistent Cold-Air Pool Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: stent Cold-Air Pool Study (PCAPS) was conducted in Utah's Salt Lake valley from 1 December 2010 to 7 February 2011. The field campaign's primary goal was to improve understanding of the physical processes governing the ...
Description and Evaluation of the Characteristics of the NCAR High-Resolution Land Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes important characteristics of an uncoupled high-resolution land data assimilation system (HRLDAS) and presents a systematic evaluation of 18-month-long HRLDAS numerical experiments, conducted in two ...
Crop Wind Energy Experiment (CWEX): Observations of Surface-Layer, Boundary Layer, and Mesoscale Interactions with a Wind Farm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ions of mean and turbulent wind characteristics by large wind turbines modify fluxes between the vegetated surface and the lower boundary layer. While simulations have suggested that wind farms could significantly change ...
Metcrax 2006
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Meteor Crater Experiment (METCRAX 2006) was conducted in October 2006 at Arizona's Meteor Crater to investigate stable boundary layer evolution in a topographically uncomplicated basin surrounded by the nearly homogeneous ...
