Abstract: An observational study of convective motion in the cumulus subcloud layer was made by remote sensing from the ground. The vertical distributions of three-dimensional wind components are observed by a Doppler acoustic sounder ...

Abstract: Based on the precipitable water data provided by Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR), and wind data by Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS) and Geostationary Operational Environment Satellite (GOES), ...

Abstract: The peak gust speed is often used to evaluate the maximum wind tome acting on the structure in wind engineering. To evaluate this peak gust speed, the ratio of the peak gust speed over the mean wind speed (called gust ...

Abstract: During the field observation period of the Air Mass Transformation Experiment in 1975 (AMTEX ?75), one of the boundary-layer research flights of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Electra aircraft was ...

Abstract: The present study group has developed a new wind profiling sodar with a phased array antenna. This system is superior to usual ones with parabolic reflectors in its portability. Preliminary experiments have shown the ...
