On the Measurement of In-Cloud and Wet-Bulb Temperatures from an Aircraft
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements of air temperature with an immersion thermometer from an aircraft are invariably affected by the increased temperature of the decelerated air in the vicinity of the element. For dry air and a dry thermometer ...
An Experimental Study of Turbulence Structure in the Fair-Weather Trade Wind Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements of air velocity, temperature and humidity were made from an aircraft in the fair-weather trade wind boundary layer. On the day of the experiment, the region studied was characterized by north-south bands of ...
Mean-Field and Second-Moment Budgets in a Baroclinic, Convective Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Terms in the budgets of turbulence kinetic energy, temperature and humidity variances, and temperature and humidity fluxes have been evaluated for a baroclinic, convective boundary layer using data obtained from the NCAR ...
The Temperature-Humidity Covariance Budget in the Convective Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The behavior of the temperature-humidity covariance (?q) budget in the convectively driven boundary layer is determined through analysis of data from AMTEX and (to a lesser extent) Kansas and Minnesota. In the near-neutral ...
