Abstract: The development and testing of a field durable, infrared differential absorption hygrometer is described. This noncontact hygrometer offers reliable operation in harsh environments while maintaining subsecond response ...

Abstract: A 10 cm radar was employed in an effort to measure the radar cross section of cloud-to-ground lightning channels and its temporal variation. A data acquisition system was developed which is capable of recording the amplitude ...

Abstract: A graybody, longwave, radiative transfer model based on revised estimates of the absorption characteristics of CO2 and H2O is proposed. The model is computationally efficient and is designed for use within larger mesoscale ...
