Sensor and Electronic Biases/Errors in Air Temperature Measurements in Common Weather Station Networks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The biases of four commonly used air temperature sensors are examined and detailed. Each temperature transducer consists of three components: temperature sensing elements, signal conditioning circuitry, and corresponding ...
Uncertainties of Derived Dewpoint Temperature and Relative Humidity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents an evaluation of derived dewpoint temperature and derived relative humidity, in which the dewpoint temperature is calculated using measured ambient air temperature and measured relative humidity variables ...
Air Temperature Comparison between the MMTS and the USCRN Temperature Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) was officially and nationally commissioned by the Department of Commerce and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in 2004. During a 1-yr side-by-side field ...
On the USCRN Temperature System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In 2004 a new aspirated surface air temperature system was officially deployed nationally in the U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) commissioned by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The primary goal ...
The Effectiveness of the ASOS, MMTS, Gill, and CRS Air Temperature Radiation Shields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Periodic upgrades of air temperature measurement systems in surface weather station networks cause data discontinuities. From a climatological viewpoint, it is necessary to evaluate the air temperature data discontinuities ...
Airflow Characteristics of Commonly Used Temperature Radiation Shields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The air temperature radiation shield is a key component in air temperature measurement in weather station networks; however, it is widely recognized that significant errors in the measured air temperature exist due to ...
Some Perspectives on Recent In Situ Air Temperature Observations: Modeling the Microclimate inside the Radiation Shields
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Air temperature measurement has inherent biases associated with the particular radiation shield and sensor deployed. The replacement of the Cotton Region Shelter (CRS) with the Maximum?Minimum Temperature System (MMTS) and ...
Microstructure and Wear Behavior of Nano-TiB2p/2024Al Matrix Composites Fabricated by Laser Direct Energy Deposition With Powder Feeding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of TiB2 content on the microstructure and wear behavior of nano-TiB2p/2024Al composites fabricated by laser direct energy deposition (L-DED). The dry sliding friction ...
Predicting Winter Wheat Heading Date: A Simple Model and Its Validation in Kansas
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Use of High-Resolution Satellite Observations to Evaluate Cloud and Precipitation Statistics from Cloud-Resolving Model Simulations. Part I: South China Sea Monsoon Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud and precipitation simulated using the three-dimensional (3D) Goddard Cumulus Ensemble (GCE) model are compared to Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) and Precipitation Radar (PR) rainfall ...
