An Interpretation of the Mechanisms of Ice-Crystal Formation Operative in the Lake Almanor Cloud-Seeding Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In a 1984?85 winter cloud-seeding program at Lake Almanor, California, indium sesquioxide (In2O3) aerosol particle generators were collocated with silver iodide (AgI) aerosol particle generators as a source of inert tracer ...
An Analysis of Sierra Nevada Winter Orographic Storms: Ground-based Ice-Crystal Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Systematic observations of the sizes, shapes, and degrees of riming of ice particles falling at a downwind station of a major mountain barrier are presented. The observational station was equipped to measure ice-particle ...
Mass-Dimensional Relationships for Ice Particles and the Influence of Riming on Snowfall Rates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The masses, dimensions, and habits of over 2800 natural ice particles precipitating from orographic winter storms in the central Sierra Nevada were obtained using photomicrographs. Ice particles that could be unambiguously ...
