CALCULATIONS OF MIE BACK-SCATTERING FROM MELTING ICE SPHERES
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)Calculations of the normalized back-scattering cross-section, σb, of ice spheres surrounded by shells of liquid water have been made from an extension of the Mie theory to a two-layer model. Curves of σb as a function of ... -

A PROCEDURE FOR NUMERICAL INTEGRATION OF THE SPECTRAL VORTICITY EQUATION
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)The vorticity equation may be integrated in spectral form by constructing a table of interaction coefficients. A method is given for computing and ordering this table and for performing the numerical integration. An advantage ... -
CHEMICAL HEATING ABOVE THE POLAR MESOPAUSE IN WINTER
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)Earlier predictions that the upper atmosphere at high latitudes is warmer in winter than in summer in the region between about 70 and 100 km have been verified during the IGY by direct temperature measurements with rockets. ... -
OBSERVATIONS OF SMALL DROP COLLISIONS
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)Experimental observations of water droplets with diameters of about 35 ? show that collisions leading to coalescence are very rare and probably do not occur. At 45 ? diameter, collisions can occur. These observations support ... -
ATMOSPHERIC DIFFUSION OF PARTICULATE MATERIAL, CONSIDERED AS A BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)No Abstract Available. -
NUMERICAL PREDICTION OF HURRICANE MOVEMENT WITH THE EQUIVALENT-BAROTROPIC MODEL
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)Equivalent-barotropic-model predictions of hurricane trajectories made with a 150-km grid mesh are presented. By a series of comparative tests, the results suggest that more accurate forecasts were obtained using ... -
A NUMERICAL METHOD FOR THE COMPUTATION OF THE RADIATIVE FLUX DIVERGENCE NEAR THE GROUND
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)A numerical method for the computation of radiative flux divergence is given, which is particularly suited for micrometeorological use. By avoiding derivatives of the emissivity for very short path lengths, this method is ... -
BASIC CONCEPTS CONCERNING CUTOFF GLASS FILTERS USED IN DIATION- MEASUREMENTS
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)In radiation meteorology, accurate filter measurements are of importance, particularly for the determination of the parameters of atmospheric transmission. This paper attempts to review the more important aspects involved ... -
THE EXTENDED NUMERICAL INTEGRATION OF A SIMPLE BAROTROPIC MODEL
(American Meteorological Society, 1961)A simple barotropic model is integrated for 39 days by one-hour time steps over 94 per cent of the earth's surface. By suitably smoothing the stream function at each time step, time truncation errors are controlled and the ...
