Complex Index of Refraction of Airborne Fly Ash Determined by Laser Radar and Collection of Particles at 13 km
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: On 30 September 1970, the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) obtained data on the vertical distribution of particulate material over Boulder, Colo., from laser radar soundings and simultaneous airborne particle ...
Results of a Comprehensive Atmospheric Aerosol-Radiation Experiment in the Southwestern United States. Part II: Radiation Flux Measurements and Theoretical Interpretation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The experimental results in Part I are used in the theoretical interpretation of the radiation flux measurements which were taken with an aircraft. The absorption term of the complex refractive index of aerosols is estimated ...
Results of a Comprehensive Atmospheric Aerosol-Radiation Experiment in the Southwestern United States Part I: Size Distribution, Extinction Optical Depth and Vertical Profiles of Aerosols Suspended in the Atmosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An exploratory field experiment was undertaken to determine the practicality of a method specifically designed to obtain the optical properties of aerosols as they relate to the earth's radiation balance. The method requires ...
