10 to 12 μm Spectral Emissivity of a Cirrus Cloud
(American Meteorological Society, 1974)A balloon flight made 4 February 1970 with an infrared spectral radiometer system scanning from 10 to 13 ?m ascended through an extensive cirrus cloud. This allowed measurements to be made of the spectral radiance of the ... -
10 Years of Hurricane Synoptic Surveillance (1997–2006)
(American Meteorological Society, 2009)In 1997, the National Hurricane Center and the Hurricane Research Division began operational synoptic surveillance missions with the Gulfstream IV-SP jet aircraft to improve the numerical guidance for hurricanes that ... -
100 Years Later: Reflecting on Alfred Wegener’s Contributions to Tornado Research in Europe
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractAlfred Wegener (1880?1930) was a leading geophysicist, atmospheric scientist, and an Arctic explorer who is mainly remembered today for his contributions to the theory of continental drift. Less well known are his ... -
100 Years of Progress in Applied Meteorology. Part I: Basic Applications
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractThe field of atmospheric science has been enhanced by its long-standing collaboration with entities with specific needs. This chapter and the two subsequent ones describe how applications have worked to advance the ... -
100 Years of Progress in Applied Meteorology. Part III: Additional Applications
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractApplied meteorology is an important and rapidly growing field. This chapter concludes the three-chapter series of this monograph describing how meteorological information can be used to serve society?s needs while ... -
100 Years of Progress in Boundary Layer Meteorology
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractOver the last 100 years, boundary layer meteorology grew from the subject of mostly near-surface observations to a field encompassing diverse atmospheric boundary layers (ABLs) around the world. From the start, ... -
100 Years of Progress in Gas-Phase Atmospheric Chemistry Research
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractRemarkable progress has occurred over the last 100 years in our understanding of atmospheric chemical composition, stratospheric and tropospheric chemistry, urban air pollution, acid rain, and the formation of ... -
100 Years of Progress in Understanding the General Circulation of the Atmosphere
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractSome of the advances of the past century in our understanding of the general circulation of the atmosphere are described, starting with a brief summary of some of the key developments from the first half of the ... -
100 Years of Research on Mesoscale Convective Systems
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractWhen cumulonimbus clouds aggregate, developing into a single entity with precipitation covering a horizontal scale of hundreds of kilometers, they are called mesoscale convective systems (MCSs). They account for ... -
100-Year Lower Mississippi Floods in a Global Climate Model: Characteristics and Future Changes
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractFloods in the Mississippi basin can have large negative societal, natural, and economic impacts. Understanding the drivers of floods, now and in the future, is relevant for risk management and infrastructure-planning ... -
100-Year Return Value Estimates for Ocean Wind Speed and Significant Wave Height from the ERA-40 Data
(American Meteorological Society, 2005)In this article global estimates of 100-yr return values of wind speed and significant wave height are presented. These estimates are based on the ECMWF 40-yr Re-Analysis (ERA-40) data and are linearly corrected using ... -
