EXTRAPOLATION OF SUNSPOT-CLIMATE RELATIONSHIPS
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)No Abstract Available -

THEORY AND EFFECTS OF VERTICAL TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION IN TURBID AIR
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)The temperature of a thin turbid layer above the ground is expressed as a function of time by considering the processes of nocturnal radiation and eddy conduction. It is found that under certain conditions the layer will ... -
ICE-CRYSTAL GROWTH
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)Laboratory measurements of the rate of ice-crystal growth by sublimation are found to be in good agreement with Houghton's (1950) calculations. With use of Houghton's data for the growth of ice crystals at relatively warm ... -
SCATTERING OF MICROWAVES BY A MELTING, SPHERICAL ICE PARTICLE
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)No Abstract Available -

HORIZONTAL MOMENTUM FLUX DUE TO SMALL-SCALE TURBULENCE
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)No Abstract Available -
EVOLUTION OF THE KONA STORM A SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)Two sources of kona-storm development in the eastern Pacific are studied, together with factors leading to storm intensification. Vertical structure of this subtropical cyclone is considered in terms of sounding data from ... -
ATMOSPHERIC OSCILLATIONS AND THE TEMPERATURE PROFILE OF THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)A linearized dynamical theory of the tides is invoked to account for the observed magnification of the surface-pressure oscillations with periods of 12 and 10.5 hrs. The fundamental equations of the problem are set up, and ... -
ON THE PRESSURE DEPENDENCE OF RADIATIVE HEAT TRANSFER IN THE ATMOSPHERE
(American Meteorological Society, 1952)Recent experimental evidence seems to establish the validity of Lorentz (linear) pressure broadening of spectral lines under atmospheric conditions. This simplifies the analytical representation of the fractional transmission ... -
TEMPERATURE FREQUENCIES IN THE UNITED STATES
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)Standard deviations of distributions of hourly temperatures at forty places in the United States during January and July (1935?1939) show area and seasonal changes differing from those of the mean daily range. Skewness is ... -
A SIMPLE THREE-DIMENSIONAL MODEL FOR THE STUDY OF LARGE-SCALE EXTRATROPICAL FLOW PATTERNS
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)A study is made of the hydrostatic and quasi-geostrophic motion of two superimposed layers of homogeneous and incompressible fluids of different densities, these fluids being contained between two rigid, horizontal plates. ... -
POSSIBILITIES FOR CLOUD SEEDING AS DETERMINED BY A STUDY OF CLOUD HEIGHT VERSUS PRECIPITATION
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)No Abstract Available -
ON THE THEORY OF CROSS-VALLEY WINDS ARISING FROM DIFFERENTIAL HEATING OF THE SLOPES
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)By means of equations of horizontal motion and astronomical considerations, expressions are derived for a cross-valley wind caused by differential solar heating on opposite slopes. Friction, inertia, the Coriolis force, ... -
A GENERAL EQUATION OF HORIZONTAL MASS DIVERGENCE IN THE ATMOSPHERE
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)A general equation of horizontal mass divergence is derived from the general equation of motion without approximation, except neglect of friction. The sphericity of the earth's surface is included in the derivation. The ... -
DIFFERENTIAL RELATION BETWEEN QUANTITIES PROJECTED FROM METEORLOGICAL SURFACES
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)No Abstract Available -
AN OBSERVATION OF THE FREEZING DROPLETS IN ION TRACKS
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)No Abstract Available -
FRONTAL MICROSEISMS GENERATED IN THE WESTERN NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN
(American Meteorological Society, 1951)Case histories of six microseism storms generated by marine cold fronts are given. Seismograms from the New York City and Palisades stations of Columbia University and from Weston College Observatory were utilized together ... -
