Abstract: n this paper, statistical properties of rainfall are derived from 14 years of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission data to optimize the use of flight hours for the upcoming High Altitude Ice Crystals (HAIC)/High Ice Water ...

Abstract: The Gerber Scientific, Inc. Particle Volume Monitor (PVM) is widely used to measure the liquid water content (LWC) and droplet effective radius (reff) of water clouds. The LWC response of the airborne version of this ...

Abstract: Analysis of the aircraft icing environments of East Coast winter storms have been made from 3 1 flights duringthe second Canadian Atlantic Storms Program. Microphysical parameters have been summarized and are compared to ...

Abstract: This paper considers the theory of diffraction image formation of spherical particles and peculiarities of particle sizing by discrete imaging probes. The diffraction images of spherical water droplets are approximated by ...

Abstract: The present study discusses the meso- and microscale structures of Precipitation regions within a midlatitude winter storm over the North Atlantic, observed during the Experiment on Rapidly Intensifying Cyclones over the ...

Abstract: irborne measurements of ice water content (IWC) in both ice and mixed-phase clouds remain one of the long-standing problems in experimental cloud physics. For nearly three decades, IWC has been measured with the help of ...

Abstract: A counterflow virtual impactor (CVI) designed for aircraft use was evaluated at the NASA Icing Research Tunnel in Cleveland, Ohio. Tests were conducted for tunnel speeds of 67 and 100 m s?1, for liquid water contents of ...

Abstract: Wet wind tunnel tests have been Performed on several versions of the CSIRO probe designed for the airborne measurement of liquid water content. Four different controller units and 17 different Probe sensors (including ...

Abstract: A summer (June and July) cumulus cloud seeding experiment was conducted in Canada near Yellowknife in 1975 and 1976, and Thunder Bay in 1977 and 1978. Microphysical and dynamical measurements were made with three instrumented ...

Abstract: In this study, observations from aircraft, Doppler radar, and LANDSAT are used to better understand dynamical and microphysical characteristics of low-level Arctic clouds for climate change studies. Observations during the ...
