Ice Nucleus Concentrations Measured During the 1975 Florida Area Cumulus Experiment (FACE)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Ice nuclei measurements were made aboard a cloud-base aircraft during the 1975 Florida Area Cumulus Experiment. Two techniques were used to obtain the ice nuclei concentrations; membranes were collected and analyzed using ...
An Experimental Study of the Detection of Ice Nuclei on Membrane Filters and Other Substrata
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An experimental study was made of a membrane filter technique for the detection of ice nuclei in which air of controlled humidity flows across the cooled membrane as opposed to the usual static thermal diffusion procedure. ...
A Calibration of the NCAR Acoustical Ice Nucleus Counter
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The NCAR acoustical ice nucleus counter was calibrated against a Bigg-Warner Weather Bureau type chamber modified as a mixing chamber. The mixing chamber was in turn calibrated against the CSU-NSF isothermal diffusion cloud ...
Laboratory Investigations of Cloud Nuclei from Combustion of Space Shuttle Propellant
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Small quantities of solid rocket motor propellant, of the type to launch the Space Shuttle, were burned at ambient pressure in the laboratory to provide aerosol samples for characterization. A portion of each sample was ...
A Comparison of the Langer, Rosen, Nolan-Pollak and SANDS Condensation Nucleus Counters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Laboratory comparisons have been made of aerosol concentrations indicated by four different types of condensation nucleus counters. Three of these counters, the Langer, Rosen, and General Electric SANDS instruments have ...
