What is a Raindrop Size Distribution?
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)It is commonly understood that the number of drops that one happens to measure as a function of diameter in some sample represents the drop size distribution. However, recent observations show that rain is "patchy" suggesting ... -
meeting summary: Second Northeast Regional Operational Workshop
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)The Second Northeast Regional Operational Workshop, focusing on hydrometeorology in the northeastern United States, was held 7?8 November 2000 in Albany, New York. Sessions in cold season events, warm season events, and ... -
meeting summary: A Workshop on the MJO and ENSO
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)A workshop was held 15?17 March 2000 to discuss the possibility that the Madden?Julian oscillation (MJO) interacts with El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The workshop explored a number of topics related to the MJO?ENSO ... -

An Operational Evaluation of Two Regional–Scale Ozone Air Quality Modeling Systems over the Eastern United States
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)In this paper, the performance of two commonly used regional?scale Eulerian photochemical modeling systems, namely, RAMS/UAM?V and MM5/SAQM, from the regulatory or operational perspective, is examined. While the Urban ... -
Computer Training for Entrepreneurial Meteorologists
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)Computer applications of increasing diversity form a growing part of the undergraduate education of meteorologists in the early twenty?first century. The advent of the Internet economy, as well as a waning demand for ... -
A Comparison between Sea Surface Temperatures as Derived from the European Remote Sensing Along–Track Scanning Radiometer and the NOAA/NASA AVHRR Oceans Pathfinder Dataset

The Aerosonde Robotic Aircraft: A New Paradigm for Environmental Observations
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)The Aerosonde is a small robotic aircraft designed for highly flexible and inexpensive operations. Missions are conducted in a completely robotic mode, with the aircraft under the command of a ground controller who monitors ... -
A Critical Assessment of Glaciogenic Seeding of Convective Clouds for Rainfall Enhancement
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)The scientific evidence for enhancing rainfall from convective clouds by static?mode and dynamic?mode seeding with glaciogenic agents is examined and critically assessed. The assessment uses, as a measure of proof of ... -
