TEMPERATURE CHANGES DURING FORMATION AND DISSIPATION OF WEST COAST STRATUS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: At three-hourly intervals during three 24- to 48-hour periods in the summer of 1943, radiosonde observations were made at the University of California at Los Angeles; to ascertain the changes in vertical temperature ...
THE RADIATIONAL TEMPERATURE CHANGES OVER THE EASTERN NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN IN JULY 1949
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The net gain or loss of energy at 700 millibars over the eastern North Pacific Ocean due to the absorption and emission of radiation by water vapor was computed for nine days during a period when the subtropical anticyclone ...
A Method of Measuring Drop Size Distributions in Laboratory Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method of measuring drop size distribution in clouds, especially adapted for wind tunnels and other cloud chambers in which the cloud is carried in an air stream, is presented. It consists of photographing the cloud ...
Experimental Evaluation of Collection and Coalescence Efficiencies of Cloud Drops
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Collection efficiencies of drops of radius A less than 120 µm falling through clouds of drop radius a for which the size ratio p=a/A was between 0.18 and 0.23 were found experimentally to be considerably lower than the ...
A Numerical Simulation of the Gravitational Coagulation Process for Cloud Droplets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The stochastic collection process of a large drop capturing a spectrum of randomly positioned small droplets is investigated by Monte Carlo simulation, and sample growth statistics from 32 independent trials are analyzed ...
