A Model for Estimating One-Minute Rainfall Rates
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)A model for estimating one-minute rainfall rates has been developed using stepwise multiple regression analysis. The model is made up of six regression equations to estimate rates that are equalled or exceeded 0.01, 0.05, ... -
An Instrument for the Measurement of Precipitation Rate by Near-Infrared Extinction
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The design, construction and performance of a near-infrared atmospheric precipitation sensing device is described. An infrared light emitting diode was used to generate a sensing beam of 0.92 ?m wavelength. The collimated ... -
Estimating Missing Daily Maximum and Minimum Temperatures
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)Seven methods for estimating maximum and minimum temperatures were developed from the literature and other sources. These techniques include correlative and additive procedures based on the relationships between stations, ... -
Sampling Errors in Satellite-Derived Total Ozone Trends
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)In the study or ozone trends, the importance of adequate sampling of large-scale space and time variability is well recognized. However, sampling errors also result from existence of time and space variability on scales ... -
On the Local Isotropy of the Temperature Field in an Urban Area
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)Experimental results of simultaneous measurements of temperature differences in the streamwise, lateral and vertical directions during convective, new-neutral and stable conditions in the atmospheric boundary layer of an ... -
A Quasi-Three-Dimensional Climate Model
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)A quasi-three-dimensional global climate model designed to trace the transient evolution of climate is described. The model, which has an interactive ocean, differs from earlier models in including a 5-layer atmospheric ... -

An Interactive Barnes Objective Map Analysis Scheme for Use with Satellite and Conventional Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)An objective analysis scheme based on the Barnes technique and designed for use on an interactive computer is described. In order to meet the specific needs of the research meteorologist, the interactive Barnes scheme ... -
The Florida Area Cumulus Experiment's Second Phase (FACE-2). Part I: The Experimental Design, Implementation and Basic Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The Florida Area Cumulus Experiment (FACE) is a single area, randomized experiment designed to assess the ground-level rainfall effects of dynamic cloud seeding in summer on the south Florida peninsula. The second phase ... -
Numerical Simulation of Dry Ice Cloud Seeding Experiments
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The application of a two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model to describe the effects of dry ice cloud seeding is demonstrated. A conservation equation and associated auxiliary equations for the mixing ratio of dry ice ... -
The Florida Area Cumulus Experiment's Second Phase (FACE-2). Part II: Replicated and Confirmatory Analyses
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)FACE-2 was a confirmatory weather modification experiment conducted in south Florida in the three summers of 1978, 1979 and 1980. The results of the FACE-2 replicated and pre-specified confirmatory rainfall analyses are ... -
Automated Measurements of Atmospheric Visibility
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The concept of using a solid-state, linear-array imaging device coupled with computerized scene analysis and display to measure daytime atmospheric visibility is described. Computer software is implemented for routine ... -
Calibration of a Pressure Sensor and a Radar Receiver Using Behavioral Modeling
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)An equation used to describe the calibration of an instrument is either of an arbitrary nature or based upon physics. The latter, which we call behavioral modeling, often provides a much better fit to the calibration than ... -
The Variation of the Mean Temperature of an Overshotting Top with Angle of View from a Satellite
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The mean difference in temperature ??T between a cirrus deck and an overshooting top in the shapes of an entire hemisphere and a spherical segment of a hemisphere is determined theoretically for different angles of view ... -

An Examination of a Technique for Estimating the Longwave Radiation Budget from Satellite Radiance Observations
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)Comparisons of zonally averaged outgoing longwave fluxes estimated from 10 ?m radiance observations on NOAA polar orbiting satellites with flat plate observations on the Nimbus 6 ERB experiment have shown the NOAA estimates ... -
Measurement and Prediction of Traffic-Induced Turbulence and Velocity Fields Near Roadways
(American Meteorological Society, 1983)The primary objectives of this investigation are to determine the temporal and spacial resolution needed to adequately measure vehicle wake turbulence and the characteristics of turbulence near roadways using the knowledge ...
