Abstract: An algorithm is developed to derive cloud ice water path (IWP) and ice particle effective diameters De from the advanced microwave sounding unit (AMSU) measurements. In the algorithm, both IWP and De are related to the ice ...

Abstract: Rain-rate retrievals from passive microwave sensors are useful for a number of applications related to weather forecasting. For example, in the United States, such estimates are useful for offshore rainfall systems approaching ...

Abstract: Falling film evaporation is widely used in solar desalination systems. Fouling is an important problem to be addressed in many applications involving heat transfer including processes involving the utilization of solar ...
