RISMeasurements of Boundary Layer Profiles with In Situ Sensors and Doppler Lidar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new in situ measurement system and lidar processing algorithms were developed for improved measurements of boundary layer profiles. The first comparisons of simultaneous Doppler lidar?derived profiles of the key turbulence ...
Turbulence Measurements with the CIRES Tethered Lifting System during CASES-99: Calibration and Spectral Analysis of Temperature and Velocity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Finescale temperature and velocity measurements with multiple vertically spaced cold-wire and hot-wire sensors on the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Environmental Sciences (CIRES) tethered lifting system (TLS) ...
A Statistical Description of Small-Scale Turbulence in the Low-Level Nocturnal Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The probability density function (PDF) and spatial statistics of both the energy dissipation rate ? and the temperature structure constant C2T are determined for the shear region of a nocturnal jet. The PDF of ? and C2T ...
Measurements of Boundary Layer Profiles in an Urban Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Boundary layer profiles of mean temperature, velocity, and small-scale turbulence from in situ sensors, Doppler lidar, sodar, and rawinsondes are intercompared for an urban environment. A new Doppler lidar algorithm is ...
Extreme Gradients in the Nocturnal Boundary Layer: Structure, Evolution, and Potential Causes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the Cooperative Atmosphere?Surface Exchange Study-1999 (CASES-99) campaign in southeastern Kansas in the fall of 1999, the University of Colorado's Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) ...
The Pentagon Shield Field Program: Toward Critical Infrastructure Protection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Pentagon, and its 25,000+ occupants, represents a likely target for a future terrorist attack using chemical, biological, or radiological material released into the atmosphere. Motivated by this, a building-protection ...
