      tract

    • Prognosis for Weather Forecasting 

      Ramage, C. S. (American Meteorological Society, 1976)
      Operational meteorology and its supporting research are based on long-established beliefs that important weather changes are preceded by recognizable meteorological events, and that forecasting accuracy improves along with ...

    • Use of Digital Radar Data in Severe Weather Forecasting 

      Muench, H. Stuart (American Meteorological Society, 1976)
      Forecasting severe weather conditions is a difficult problem due to both the small size and short lifetime of the storms. Conventional weather information is too coarse in time and space to follow individual storms but can ...

    • Climate and Food Workshop: a Report 

      Newell, Reginald E.; Tanaka, Minoru; Misra, Bijoy (American Meteorological Society, 1976)
      We report on a workshop designed to study some of the interrelationships between climate and food production, emphasizing the use of readily available climatological data. Closer monitoring of contemporary climatic events ...

    • Meteorological Effects of Energy Dissipation at Large Power Parks 

      Hanna, Steven R.; Gifford, Franklin A. (American Meteorological Society, 1975)
      Large (10 000 to 50 000 MW) power parks are being studied as one means of satisfying the nation's demand for energy. The dissipation of waste energy from these installations may result in significant meteorological effects. ...

    • Weather and World Food 

      Collis, R. T. H. (American Meteorological Society, 1975)
      Increasing demand is outstripping world food production, despite increased yields due to technological progress. Combined with adverse weather and governmental policies, this has led to a major rundown of reserve grain ...

    • Generation of Power from the Wind 

      Hewson, E. Wendell (American Meteorological Society, 1975)
      There is vast energy available in the earth's winds for man's use. It is conservatively estimated that the wind power available to man is the equivalent of the output of 1000 typical fossil fueled or nuclear power plants ...
