A PROPOSED MECHANISM OF SQUALL LINES: THE PRESSURE JUMP LINE
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -

DROP-SIZIE HISTORY DURING A SHOWER
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)A sequence of five closely spaced raindrop samples taken during the passage of a shower displayed approximate monodispersity in each sample, and drops decreasing to drizzle size with time. Correlations of median volume ... -
LARGE-SCALE EDDY FLUX AS A MECHANISM FOR VERTICAL TRANSPORT OF OZONE
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -
RADAR ECHOES FROM A GROWING THUNDERSTORM
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)The theoretical growth of hail and the behavior of the first radar echo in a cumulus cloud are analyzed. Good agreement is found between the theory and the observations of Workman and Reynolds. -
THE DISTRIBUTION OF RAIN IN TROPICAL STORMS
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -
DIRECT SOLAR INFLUENCES ON THE ATMOSPHERE
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -

RAINDROP CHARGE AND ELECTRIC FIELD IN ACTIVE THUNDERSTORMS
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)The electrical characteristics of two active spring thunderstorms are reported. Simultaneous surface measurements of the sign and magnitude of the free charge on individual raindrops, the electric field and precipitation ... -
EFFECTS OF VARIOUS FACTORS ON VALLEY WINDS
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)A relation is derived for the periodic valley wind as a function of time and elevation, in terms of the diurnal temperature variation, slope of the valley floor, eddy viscosity, the Coriolis force, and a pressure force ... -
REMARKS ON "LINE ABSORPTION AND RADIATIVE EQUILIBRIUM"
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -
ON THE CAUSES OF INSTRUMENTALLY OBSERVED SECULAR TEMPERATURE TRENDS
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)A general survey is made of the feasibility of using trends in long-period temperature records as representations of climatic change. A breakdown of all probable significant sources of influence on such records, together ... -
A STUDY OF THE RAINFALL OF CENTRAL CUBA
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)Occurrences and quantity of rainfall in three areas in central Cuba are related to accompanying large-scale weather patterns, to winds at three levels in the atmosphere, and to the lapse rates. The relationships are ... -
THE STABILITY PROPERTIES AND STRUCTURE OF DISTURBANCES IN A BAROCLINIC ATMOSPHERE
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)The stability properties and the vertical variations of the amplitudes and phase angles of disturbances in a baroclinic zonal current are discussed, by use of approximate solutions. It is found that, when friction is ... -
THE VARIATION WITH HEIGHT OF THE VERTICAL FLUX OF HEAT AND MOMENTUM
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)Direct measurements have been made of the vertical flux of heat and momentum in the layer from 2 to 12 meters. Eddy velocities were obtained from hot-wire anemometers and light bivanes, mounted at four levels; temperature ... -
A MODIFIED FORM OF TRABERT'S FORMULA
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -
A NOTE ON THE PERIODICITY OF SOME FRONTAL PWECIPITATHON
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)No Abstract Available -
DIFFUSION, ENTRAINMENT AND FRICTIONAL DRAG ASSOCIATED WITH NON-SATURATED, BUOYANT AIR PARCELS RISING THROUGH A TURBULENT AIR MASS
(American Meteorological Society, 1953)The entrainment equations of Houghton and Cramer have been extended to include the effects of diffusion of heat and momentum and the frictional pressure drag. The equations developed from these considerations show that ... -
