Discussion of “<i>Behavior of Isotropic R/C Bridge Decks on Steel Girders</i>” by I.‐K. Fang, J. Worley, N. H. Burns, and R. E. Klingner (March, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 3)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
The Application of Infrared Flux Models to Atmospheric Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The infrared flux expressions, both upward and downward at an arbitrary reference level, are presented for two computational models. In one model the stipulated cloud and terrain surfaces are nontransparent, but not ...
Climate Drift in a Coupled Land–Atmosphere Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A coupled land?atmosphere climate model is examined for evidence of climate drift in the land surface state variable of soil moisture. The drift is characterized as pathological error growth in two different ways. First ...
An Evaluation of the Strength of Land–Atmosphere Coupling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two ensembles of 1-month integrations of a coupled land?atmosphere climate model that differ only in their treatment of land surface boundary conditions have been generated from initial conditions chosen from the July ...
Window of Opportunity: The Climatic Conditions of the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804–1806
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Lewis and Clark's entry into to the American West in search of an inland Northwest Passage is considered among the greatest expeditions in American history. The Corps of Discovery were also lucky as their travels west of ...
Vibration Instability in Rolling Mills: Modeling and Experimental Results
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Models for the occurrence of the vibrational instability during rolling known as third octave chatter are presented and discussed. An analysis of rolling mill chatter was performed for the ...
The Role of the Land Surface Background State in Climate Predictability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Skill in ensemble-mean dynamical seasonal climate hindcasts with a coupled land?atmosphere model and specified observed sea surface temperature is compared to that for long multidecade integrations of the same model where ...
Rapid Water Content by Computer‐Controlled Microwave Drying
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equipment for determining water content rapidly, accurately, and reliably is required to properly monitor the compaction of earth fills. Improper compaction control can result in structures with severe performance and ...
Closure to “<i>Rapid Water Content by Computer‐Controlled Microwave Drying</i>” by Paul A. Gilbert (January, 1991, Vol. 117, No. 1)
