Abstract: Perpetual January data from a simple global two-level model are used to diagnose the forcing of the model's low-frequency (LF), large-scale flow. The forcing is considered within the context of a hypothetical low-order ...

Abstract: A full‐scale eccentrically braced dual frame building is tested under the U.S.‐Japan Cooperative Earthquake Research Program Utilizing Large‐Size Testing Facilities. The strength of the building is almost three times greater ...

Abstract: Pesticide runoff loads from grass surfaces were estimated through simulation experiments for 37 chemicals registered for use on U.S. lawns and golf courses. Simulation runs were made for each chemical and surface (lawns, ...

Abstract: Medium frequency sferics detection equipment has been used successfully for 10 years. Its usefulness is based an the finding that 95% of the alarms occurred when ≥30 dB(Z) radar echoes were present on a WSR-57 radar. The ...

Abstract: An investigation of the effective maximum range of detection of 500-kc./sec. sferies was conducted by examining recorded sferies data from widely separated locations and also during times when a circular area surrounding ...

Abstract: The high probability of detecting physically limited sferics pulse energies during some part of the overall lightning process was used in the development of a narrow band receiver-detector range sensor. An rf amplifier and ...

Abstract: A low-resolution global spectral model truncated at zonal wavenumber 5 and meridional mode 15 is developed to simulate the low-frequency variability of planetary-scale atmospheric motions. The effects of unresolved time ...
