EXPLORATION OF THE JET STREAM BY AIRCRAFT DURING THE 1952–1953 WINTER
(American Meteorological Society, 1955)In an endeavor to determine the horizontal wind structure of jet streams, a series of aircraft traverses at 30,000 feet pressure-altitude was undertaken during the winter of 1952?1953. This article outlines the results of ... -
RELATION OF LOCAL AND GENERAL WIND INTERACTION NEAR THE SEA COAST TO TIME AND LOCATION OF AIR-MASS SHOWERS
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)Summer showers along the southeast Florida coast frequently occur in organized patterns. These patterns are believed to be controlled by the areas of convergence created by interaction of the general wind and local winds. ... -

OBSERVATIONS OF SALT NUCLEI OVER THE MIDWESTERN UNITED STATES
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)The concentrations of salt particles over central Illinois are being monitored through the use of a sodium flame-counter and an impactor. The number of large particles as determined by the impactor has been found to average ... -

FRONTOGENESIS AND FRONTOLYSIS AS A THREE-DIMENSIONAL PROCESS
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)A detailed analysis is presented to show the atmospheric structure during the earlier formative stages of a deep, upper trough. Over the western United States, a well-marked west-east frontal layer extends through the whole ... -
WATER-VAPOR TRANSFER OVER THE NORTH AMERICAN CONTINENT
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)The transfer of water in vapor form by the atmosphere is presented for the calendar year 1949. Monthly and seasonal patterns of moisture flow are evaluated, and it is shown that there is a close relationship between these ... -

THE SHAPE AND AERODYNAMICS OF LARGE RAINDROPS
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)The physical factors which might be expected to control the shape of large raindrops are surface tension, hydrostatic pressures, external aerodynamic pressure, electrostatic charge, and internal circulation. Each of these ... -
CORRIGENDUM
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)Correction to Volume 11, Issue 3, Article 185. -
THE SOLAR CONSTANT
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)The value of the solar constant indicated by 30 years of observation by the Smithsonian Institution is revised in the light of the scale correction announced in 1952 and new solar spectral-irradiance data for outside the ... -
THEORY OF THE MEAN ATMOSPHERIC PERTURBATIONS PRODUCED BY DIFFERENTIAL SURFACE HEATING
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)When air flows over terrain where the surface temperature varies with position, non-adiabatic heat will be added or subtracted. We consider the time-dependent disturbances induced in a uniform basic current as the result ... -
ON THE MEAN THERMAL STRUCTURE OF TROPICAL CYCLONES
(American Meteorological Society, 1954)Radiosonde ascents made within the circulation of hurricanes are combined to arrive at the mean temperature and pressure-height distribution about the storm. The results are compared with a thermodynamic model of the ... -
