An Examination of Ice Nucleus Concentrations in Eastern New York State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This work reports the results from a five-station (remote to highly urbanized) sampling network operated in 1976 in eastern New York State in which daily measurements were made of ice nucleus and condensation nucleus ...
Snowfall From Lake-Effect Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three yr of winter lake-storm data were analyzed to determine snowfall distribution patterns downwind of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. The total amount of snowfall and the area of ground cover in each of 23 lake-effect storms ...
Snowfall from a Heavily Seeded Cloud
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Few documented cases exist to demonstrate that highly convective supercooled clouds can be completely glaciated or overseeded. By ?overseeding? we imply a sufficient concentration of ice nuclei to accommodate all the water ...
Numerical Estimates of Humidity in a Membrane–Filter Ice Nucleus Chamber
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A one-dimensional model was developed to examine humidity fields within a conditioning chamber for measuring ice nucleus concentrations on millipore filters. Representative concentrations of ice and cloud condensation ...
Some Local Climate Trends in Four Cities of New York State
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: From historical weather records, a preliminary assessment was made of local climate changes in four major urban areas of New York State. Particular emphasis was placed on cold season precipitation and possible relationships ...
A LABORATORY STUDY OF CONTRAILS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Contrails were produced for laboratory study by burning aircraft fuels under controlled conditions of ambient temperature and humidity at pressure altitudes between 1000 and 300 mb. Observed critical formation temperatures ...
Fog-82: A Cooperative Field Study of Radiation Fog
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Cloud Physics Section of the Atmospheric Sciences Research Center-State University of New York at Albany conducted a cooperative field study (FOG-82) during the autumn of 1982 as part of an ongoing radiation-fog research ...
