On the Effect of Air Bubbles in Ice on Frictional Charge Separation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effect of air bubbles in ice on the frictional charge separation was measured by the use of asymmetric rubbing of two ice rods of different concentration of air bubbles. It was found that the ice rod with the larger ...
Some Observations of Snowfall and Meteorological Conditions in Arctic Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations of snow crystals were made in mid-winter at Inuvik, N.W.T., Canada, in order to study the snow crystal of cold temperature type. The following results were obtained: 1) The cloud temperature was, in general, ...
THE ELECTRIC CHARGE ON CONDENSATE AND WATER DROPLETS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It was found that dew produced artificially on a thin wire was electrified negatively when the water temperature of the reservoir for supplying water vapor was lower than about 80C and positively when the temperature was ...
THE ELECTRIFICATION OF ANTENNAE BY SHOW AND RAIN FALLS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: It was observed that antennae were electrified during heavy snowfalls and that their potential reached several thousand volts at Mt. Teine. The electrification of the antennae was also observed during rainfalls at Sapporo. ...
Design of “Snow Crystal Sondes”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A sampling and recording sonde, called a ?Snow Crystal Sonde,? was designed to observe the vertical distribution of snow crystals in a snow cloud. The shape of snow crystals was recorded on the surface of a circulating ...
Unusual Types of Single Ice Crystals Originating from Frozen Cloud Droplets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Laboratory experiments were conducted to study the formation process of unusual types of ice crystals, using a cold chamber in the temperature range ?15 to ?25°C. Ice crystals of the bottle type seem to originate from ...
An Experiment on Fog Dispersion by the Use of Downward Air Current Caused by the Fall of Water Drops
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In July 1961 an artificial fog dissipation experiment was carried out, using a helicopter. The experiment was based on the idea that fog will be dissipated by downward air current caused by fall of water drops sprinkled ...
