The Classification of Ambiguous Ice Particle Shadowgraphs by Consensus
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A major impediment to the development of computer algorithms for the automatic classification of ice particle types found in the atmosphere as measured by a Particle Measuring System two-dimensional probe is the difficulty ...
An Objective Method for Forecasting Tropical Cyclone Motion Using Nimbus and NOAA-2 Infrared Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A statistical method has been developed using satellite, climatological, and persistence data to predict tropical cyclone position 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after initial observation. The satellite measurements were infrared ...
A Two-Dimensional Hydrometeor Machine Classifier Derived from Observed Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Classification algorithms have been developed to distinguish six categories of cloud ice particles. These algorithms have been incorporated in schema which, when applied to shadowgraph images produced by the Precision ...
An Objective Method for Forecasting Tropical Cyclone Intensity Using Nimbus-5 Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An empirical analysis program, based on finding an optimal representation of the data, has been applied to 120 observations of twenty nine 1973 and 1974 North Pacific tropical cyclones. Each observation consists of a field ...
The Estimation of Extratropical Cyclone Parameters from Satellite Radiation Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An objective statistical procedure has been developed using satellite infrared window radiation measurements to estimate the central pressure (Pc), the deviation of the central pressure from the climatological normal (?P), ...
