An Automatic Recording Raingage Network for a Cloud-Seeding Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The CSIRO Division of Cloud Physics has designed and built 103 automatic recording raingages, at a cost of about $US600 each, for use in a cloud-seeding experiment. Each unit consists of a siphoned tipping bucket interfaced ...
Comments on “A New Monte-Carlo Simulation Model for the Temporal Development of Cloud Droplet Spectra”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Monte-Carlo model by Lapidus and Shafrir for the temporal development of cloud droplet spectra is critically examined. Modifications are suggested to improve the statistical validity of the model. Both the original model ...
The Growth Rates and Densities of Ice Crystals between −3°C and −21°C
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Ice crystals were grown in a supercooled cloud at temperatures ranging from ?3°C to ?21°C for periods from 30?40 s to 150?180 s. When the axial dimensions at a given time were examined as a function of temperature, there ...
A Cloud-Seeding Experiment in Tasmania
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A cloud-seeding experiment was conducted in Tasmania using a target area and three control areas. Seeding was on a random basis using silver-iodide smoke released from an aircraft. Evidence is presented that seeding increased ...
Monitoring of Observation and Analysis Quality by a Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the ability of a modern data assimilation system to provide long-term diagnostic facilities to monitor the performance of the observational network. Operational data assimilation ...
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology 1280-MHz Wind Profiler
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has constructed a new 1280-MHz radar wind profiler. Key features include a state-of-the-art digital transceiver system and modern peak detection algorithms for obtaining high quality ...
