Ice Nuclei in Seawater, Fog Water and Marine Air off the Coast of Nova Scotia: Summer 1975
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Ice nuclei were measured in seawater, fog water and the free atmosphere from 28 July to 11 August during the 1975 Hayes Fog Cruise off the east coast of Nova Scotia, Canada. Some seawater samples were found to contain ice ...
On the Impact of Geometric Variability on Fan Aerodynamic Performance, Unsteady Blade Row Interaction, and Its Mechanical Characteristics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The focus of the present study is to assess and quantify the uncertainty in predicting the steady and unsteady aerodynamic performance as well as the major mechanical characteristics of a contrarotating turbofan, primarily ...
Biogenic Ice Nuclei: Part I. Terrestrial and Marine Sources
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Decayed plant leaf litters from North America, Europe and Asia have been found to contain copious numbers of ice nuclei, some active at ?4°C. The abundance of nuclei in a litter was noted to vary according to the climate ...
The Effect of an Eroded Leading Edge on the Aerodynamic Performance of a Transonic Fan Blade Cascade
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Especially at transonic flow conditions the leading edge shape influences the performance of a fan profile. At the same time the leading edge of a fan profile is highly affected by erosion during operation. This erosion ...
Biogenic Ice Nuclei. Part II: Bacterial Sources
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Transient appearance of ice nuclei active at temperatures of ?2 to ?5°C has been noted to accompany the natural decay of plant leaf materials. It was shown that the development of these nuclei results from the presence of ...
Radiosonde Observations from the Former Soviet “North Pole” Series of Drifting Ice Stations, 1954–90
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An historical archive of over 25 000 radiosonde observations from the former Soviet "North Pole" series of drifting ice stations has been compiled and made available to interested researchers. This archive is the only ...
