On the Analysis of Single-Doppler Radar Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The procedures currently employed to retrieve vector wind information from single-Doppler radar observations are reviewed briefly. In particular, those procedures implying a linearity hypothesis for the wind field are shown ...
Infrared Imagery Applied to A Large Buoyant Plume
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The possibility of applying infrared imagery to the study of a large, hot plume materialized by carbon particles resulting from the incomplete combustion of fuel oil is investigated. In a specific case (the PROSERPINE ...
The Dynamics of Polar Jet Streams as Depicted by the METEOSAT WV Channel Radiance Field
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A polar jet stream flowing over northern Europe is investigated using both the radiosounding network and the METEOSAT water vapor (WV) channel imagery. A maximum radiance band associated with the polar jet stream is shown ...
The Disposition of Silver Released from Soviet OBLAKO Rockets in Precipitation during the Hail Suppression Experiment Grossversuch IV. Part II: Case Studies of Seeded Cells
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes analyses of data collected from four seeded storms during the 1978 summer program of Grossversuch IV in Switzerland. The storms all met the Soviet criteria for hail-forming potential and were seeded ...
