RISSeparating Cloud and Drizzle Radar Moments during Precipitation Onset Using Doppler Spectra
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he retrieval of cloud, drizzle, and turbulence parameters using radar Doppler spectra is challenged by the convolution of microphysical and dynamical influences and the overall uncertainty introduced by turbulence. A new ...
Characterization of Vertical Velocity and Drop Size Distribution Parameters in Widespread Precipitation at ARM Facilities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtended, high-resolution measurements of vertical air motion and median volume drop diameter D0 in widespread precipitation from three diverse Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) locations [Lamont, Oklahoma, ...
Automated Retrievals of Precipitation Parameters Using Non-Rayleigh Scattering at 95 GHz
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Automated retrievals of vertical air motion and the drop size distribution (DSD) slope parameter from the surface to the base of the melting layer are presented using a technique for W-band (95 GHz) profiling radars. The ...
Marine Boundary Layer Cloud Observations in the Azores

Investigation of Regional and Seasonal Variations in Marine Boundary Layer Cloud Properties from MODIS Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To aid in understanding the role that marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds play in climate and assist in improving their representations in general circulation models (GCMs), their long-term microphysical and macroscale ...
Loads and Acoustics Prediction on Deployed Weapons Bay Doors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Unsteady separated flow from deployed weapons bay doors can interact with the highly unsteady flow in the open bay cavity, which is known to exhibit strong acoustic content and could lead to fluid-resonance and high-intensity ...
Relating Satellite-Observed Cloud Properties from MODIS to Meteorological Conditions for Marine Boundary Layer Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study examines 6 yr of cloud properties observed by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board the NASA Terra satellite in five prominent marine boundary layer (MBL) cloud regions (California, ...
A Technique for the Automatic Detection of Insect Clutter in Cloud Radar Returns
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The U.S. Department of Energy Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program operates 35-GHz millimeter-wavelength cloud radars (MMCRs) in several climatologically distinct regions. The MMCRs, which are centerpiece ...
