Reflectivity and Attenuation at Millimeter to Infrared Wavelengths for Advection Fogs at Four Locations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent drop size distribution data from four advection fog sites are reanalyzed for the purpose of predicting millimeter-wave and infrared to visible wavelength reflectivity and attenuation coefficients in such fogs. A ...
Effects of Initial and Boundary Conditions of Mesoscale Models on Simulated Atmospheric Refractivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: adar ducting is caused by sharp vertical changes in temperature and, especially, water vapor at the top of the atmospheric boundary layer, both of which are sensitive to variations in the underlying surface conditions, ...
Mesoscale Modeling of Boundary Layer Refractivity and Atmospheric Ducting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study four mesoscale forecasting systems were used to investigate the four-dimensional structure of atmospheric refractivity and ducting layers that occur within evolving synoptic conditions over the eastern seaboard ...
