    • A CHEMICAL TRACER EXPERIMENT IN OROGRAPHIC CLOUDS 

      Eber, Laurence E.; Seely, Ben K. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      In the summer of 1954, and experiment was conducted on the Island of Maui, Territory of Hawaii, in which a chemical tracer technique was exployed to ?tag? water droplets sprayed into an orographic cloud from a site near ...

    • MECHANISMS OF CIRCULATION CHANGE DURING A LEE CYCLOGENESIS 

      Newton, C. W. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      The life cycle of a destructive cyclone over the United States during 16 to 21 November 1948 is investigated. The vorticity advection at 300 millibars, as an indicator of divergence in the upper troposphere, is shown to ...

    • CONSTANTS FOR EMPIRICAL EXPRESSIONS FOR DOWNCOMING ATMOSPHERIC RADIATION UNDER CLOUDLESS SKY 

      Goss, John R.; Brooks, F. A. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      Magnitudes of the constants in Brunt's empirical expression for nocturnal radiation were determined from continuous automatic recordings of atmospheric radiation in California under cloudless skies and interpreted for the ...

    • ON THE WIND ASYMMETRY OF HURRICANES 

      Sherman, Leon (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      The difference in the wind speeds across hurricanes (from the ?dangerous? to the opposite semi-circle) is often greater than twice the speed of propagation of the storm. The traditional explanation of the speed asymmetry ...

    • THE PREDICTION OF GENERAL QUASI-GEOSTROPHIC MOTIONS 

      Charney, J. G.; Gilchrist, Bruce; Shuman, F. G. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      Methods are presented for the numerical integration of several rather general approximations to the quasi-geostrophic equations of motion. The choice of the vertical grid interval involved in these approximations is justified ...

    • INSTANTANEOUS AND CONTINUOUS WIND MEASUREMENTS UP TO THE HIGHER STRATOSPHERE 

      Reisig, Gerhard H. R. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      A method is presented of measuring the wind velocity as actually encountered during a guided missile flight. This wind measurement is instantaneous and continuous. The measuring quantities involved are the velocity vector ...

    • CORRIGENDUM 

      Unknown author (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      Correction to Volume 13, Issue 2, Article 127.

    • THE DEVELOPMENT AND MASKING OF CHARGES IN THUNDERSTORMS 

      Kuettner, Joachim (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      It has been generally accepted that segregation of charges in thunderstorms is accomplished by gravitational sedimentation. In contrast to the much-studied phenomena of charge generation and charge distribution, the mechanism ...

    • ON THE PREDICTION OF 24-HOUR HURRICANE MOTION 

      Riehl, Herbert; Haggard, William H.; Sanborn, Richard W. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      A quantitative technique for the prediction of 24-hour hurricane motion from 500-millibar charts is presented. Verification from current forecasts made during the 1955 hurricane season is given.

    • SOME ASPECTS OF LARGE-SCALE TURBULENCE PHENOMENA IN THE ATMOSPHERE

    • ON THE FLUX OF EDDY ENERGY IN SMALL-SCALE TURBULENT MOTION 

      Dryden, Warren A. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      The irreversibility of the second law of eddy thermodynamics, developed by Blackadar, depends in part on the fact that the mean flux of eddy energy relative to a surface moving with the mean fluid motion is in the direction ...

    • AN EXPERIMENT IN FORECASTING THE DISPLACEMENT OF 500-MILLIBAR TROUGHS AND RIDGES 

      Staff Members Weather Forecasting Research Center, University of Chicago (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      A number of simple objective methods of computing the motion of troughs and ridges at the 500-mb level were tested for a fifty-day period, with use of data over and near North America. The most useful methods, which are ...

    • FURTHER EVIDENCE OF DYNAMIC PERSISTENCE AND OF ITS APPLICATION TO FORESHADOWING 

      Schell, Irving I. (American Meteorological Society, 1956)
      Detailed evidence is presented of the relationship of the winter and preceding fall pressure in the Philippines and adjacent areas with the winter precipitation of the North Pacific and North America, affirming the principle ...
