Abstract: Moored-buoy wind measurements were made at 20 min intervals at 3.4 m height at 50°8?N, 140°25?W in the North Pacific from 10 November to 12 December 1981. The measurements were part of the Storm Transfer and Response ...

Abstract: This paper describes the design, calibration, and deployment of a fast-rotating shadowband radiometer (FRSR) that accurately decomposes downward shortwave (solar) irradiance into direct-beam and diffuse components from a ...

Abstract: An analytical uncertainty propagation model is used in conjunction with laboratory and field data to quantify the uncertainty in measurements of the direct-normal irradiance, aerosol optical thickness, and Ångström exponent ...

Abstract: Nauru, a small island in the tropical Pacific, generates cloud plumes that may grow to over 100-km lengths. This study uses observations to examine the mesoscale disturbance of the marine atmospheric boundary layer by the ...

Abstract: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model simulations of urban boundary layers have improved in speed and accuracy so that they are useful in assisting in planning emergency response activities related to releases of chemical ...
