Abstract: Individual ice crystals have been collected and replicated. The effect of the falling motion is found to enhance the growth along the ?c? axis of columns and the dendritic growth of plane ice crystals. It is found that the ...

Abstract: The growth mode of ice crystals in natural clouds has been studied by examination of replicas of more than 10,000 crystals sampled in about 120 clouds over the temperature range ?2 to ?32C. The relationship between the ...

Abstract: Measurements of ice crystal concentration in five clouds in northern New South Wales are reported. These confirm earlier studies in which it was found that glaciated altostratus clouds contain approximately the same ...

Abstract: Preflight and in-flight radiometric calibration plans are described for the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) that is a multispectral optical imager of high spatial resolution. It is ...
