RISInfluence of Radiation on the Temperature Sensor Mounted on the Swiss Radiosonde
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Swiss radiosonde (SRS400) measures the air temperature with a very thin copper?constantan thermocouple. The influence of the visible and infrared radiation, as well as the dependency of the air pressure on the measured ...
The Effect of Building Shadows on the Vertical Temperature Structure of the Lower Atmosphere in Downtown Denver
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Denver's Continuous Air Monitoring Program (CAMP) site, typically recording the highest carbon monoxide levels in the metropolitan area; lies within a large region of downtown Denver shadowed by tall buildings. Two studies ...
Detection of Fog and Low Cloud Boundaries with Ground-Based Remote Sensing Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performance of the boundary determination of fog and low stratiform cloud layers with data from a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) cloud radar and a Vaisala ceilometer is assessed. During wintertime stable ...
Precipitation Identification from Radar Wind Profiler Spectral Moment Data: Vertical Velocity Histograms, Velocity Variance, and Signal Power–Vertical Velocity Correlations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Correlations between range-corrected signal power Src and radial vertical velocity Vr, from the vertical beam of a UHF wind profiler can be used to distinguish between air- and precipitation-dominated echoes using an Src?Vr ...
