The Generation of Secondary Ice Particles in Clouds by Crystal–Crystal Collision
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The number of fragments generated by crystal collisions in a cloud is a product of the number of fragments produced per collision and the collision frequency. The first term, called the fragment generation function, was ...
Generalized Criteria for Seeding Winter Orographic Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An a posteriori analysis was conducted utilizing precipitation, rawinsonde and seeding generator data from seven randomized winter cloud-seeding research projects conducted in orographic settings in the Rocky Mountain West ...
Reanalysis of “Generalized Criteria for Seeding Winter Orographic Clouds”
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A serious systematic bias of the data set used in the original Vardiman and Moore (1978) work was detected while performing a continuing investigation of seeding ?windows.? This bias occurred because a large number of ...
Supercooled Liquid Water and Ice Crystal Distributions Within Sierra Nevada Winter Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cloud physics data measured by aircraft during two successive winter field seasons (1978?79 and 1979?80) of the Sierra Cooperative Pilot Project operating over the Sierra Nevada Range have been examined in order to determine ...
Operational Dissipation of Supercooled Fog Using Liquid Propane
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the equipment, the theory, and the results of an operational fog-dissipation system installed at Fairchild AFB, Washington, during the winter of 1969?70. An array of stationary ground dispensers was ...
