The Coastal Boundary Layer in Lake Ontario. Part I: The Spring Regime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Originally prompted by a desire to search for theoretically predicted ?coastal jets,? an extensive series of observations on currents in the coastal zone near Oshawa, in Lake Ontario, were carried out during 1969 and 1970. ...
Mesoscale Modeling of a Cold Front and Its Interaction with a Diurnally Heated Land Mass
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A mesoscale numerical model incorporating a detailed planetary boundary-layer scheme, including momentum, heat and moisture exchange with the lower boundary, is used to study the change in structure of a dry summertime ...
Steady Coastal Upwelling in a Continuously Stratified Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Steady coastal upwelling driven by wind-stress and surface apparent temperature anomalies in a continuously stratified ocean of infinite depth is examined within the framework of a set of linearized hydrodynamic and ...
Laser Weather Identifier: Present and Future
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Prototype Laser Weather Identifier (LWI) systems designed to detect fog, rain and snow were tested for several months at Stapleton International Airport in Denver, and at the AFGL Weather Test Facility at Otis Air Force ...
Statistical Performance of Several Mesoscale Atmospheric Dispersion Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Seventeen mesoscale dispersion models were statistically evaluated with data from krypton-85 emissions from the Savannah River Plant, Aiken, SC. Widely accepted statistical parameters were used for the statistical evaluation. ...
The Coastal Boundary Layer in Lake Ontario: Part II. The Summer-Fall Regime
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Field observations on coastal currents near Oshawa on the north shore of Lake Ontario during summer and fall are described. The technique of observations (flag-station chain) has been given in Part I, together with a ...
Executive Summary: Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Plan
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Monte Carlo Calculations of Radiative Transfer in the Earth's Atmosphere-Ocean System: I. Flux in the Atmosphere and Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The upward and downward flux at various levels in the atmosphere and ocean is calculated by a Monte Carlo method which includes all orders of multiple scattering. A realistic model of the atmosphere-ocean system is used. ...
A Multispectral Technique to Determine Sea Surface Temperature Using Nimbus 2 Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three channels of the Nimbus 2 five-channel Medium Resolution Infrared Radiometer (MRIR) have been employed in the development of a technique to determine sea surface temperature. Two of the channelsin the 0.2-4.0 and ...
