Improved Display Techniques for Sodar Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Improved quantitative display techniques, including digital false-color systems, for use with sodar or other similar remote probing systems are discussed. With sodar the use of a false-color system greatly facilitates ...
Eddy Correlation Measurements of the Dry Deposition of Particles in Wintertime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Eddy correlation measurements of the vertical fluxes of particles, momentum, heat and water vapor, were conducted over a partially snow covered field in central Pennsylvania during December 1985. The PMS ASASP-300 and ...
Simultaneous Measurements of Turbulence in the Lower Atmosphere Using Sodar and Aircraft
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simultaneous measurements of CT2 and CV2 were made using a calibrated Doppler sodar and a research aircraft equipped with meteorological and turbulence sensors. In each experiment a region of specific interest was identified ...
A First-Guess Feature-Based Algorithm for Estimating Wind Speed in Clear-Air Doppler Radar Spectra
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Algorithms for deriving winds from profiler range-gated spectra currently rely on consensus averaging to remove outliers from the subhourly velocity estimates. For persistent ground clutter in the echo return that is ...
Atmospheric Particulate Properties Inferred from Lidar and Solar Radiometer Observations Compared with Simultaneous In Situ Aircraft Measurements: A Case Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Particulate size and height distributions, complex refractive index and mass loading have been measured and inferred from direct aircraft and indirect lidar-solar radiometer observations made during a unique joint experiment ...
