The Effect of Dust Radiative Heating on Low-Level Frontogenesis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Severe dust storms frequently occur over northwestern China during spring. They are often associated with strong fronts. In this paper, numerical simulations are performed to examine the effect of dust radiative heating ...
Sensitivity Analysis of the VVP Wind Retrieval Method for Single-Doppler Weather Radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he sensitivity of the ill-conditioned coefficient matrix (CM) and the size of the analysis volume on the retrieval accuracy in the volume velocity processing (VVP) method are analyzed. By estimating the upper limit of the ...
Microencapsulation of Fatty Acid as Phase Change Material for Latent Heat Storage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Latent heat storage systems can improve the energy use efficiency and conserve limited energy resources. Microcapsules of lauric acid (LA) as the core and melamineformaldehyde (MF) resin as the shell were prepared as phase ...
