RAINDROP SIZE-DISTRIBUTION IN HAWAIIAN RAINS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A brief survey of the major techniques of raindrop size-sampling is given. The filter-paper technique, finally adopted for use in this study, adapts itself admirably to the sampling of Hawaiian orographic rains. The change ...
ELECTRICALLY CHARGED DROPS FROM BUBBLES IN SEA WATER AND THEIR METEOROLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A modification of Millikan's classic oil-drop experiment was used to determine the electric charge and radius of drops that were ejected from a bursting bubble at an air-sea water interface. Charge measurements were made ...
Positive Space Charge from the Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Potential gradient and space charge measurements have been made along the shore on the island of Hawaii. Both of these atmospheric electric parameters were positive and considerably higher and more variable when the air ...
