Mass Transfer Aspects of Pan Evaporation
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Experimental evaporation data which were obtained with shallow, square pans of different sizes and colors, were studied by means of regression analysis relating evaporation with the difference between the water vapor ... -
Effects of Hurricane Betsy upon Atlantic Ocean Temperature, Based upon Radio-Transmitted Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Radio-transmitted synoptic data are used to determine the change brought about in the thermal structure of the Atlantic Ocean by the passage of hurricane Betsy in 1965. Such data for sea surface temperature and bathythermograph ... -
An Approximation to Arithmetic Averaging for Meteorological Variables
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)An exponentially-mapped past (EMP) average has been compared with the conventional arithmetic average of wind speed. Normalized rms differences between the two averages did not exceed 8% and showed a significant decrease ... -
An Operational Six-Layer Primitive Equation Model
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)In mid-1966 a new baroclinic numerical weather prediction model became operational at the National Meteorological Center, an event made possible by advances in computer and communications technology. The new model integrates ... -

Aerodynamic Heating of Miniature Bead Thermistor Thermometers in a Rarified Airstream
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)The recovery factors of miniature bead thermistors as used in meteorological rocketsondes were measured at subsonic Mach numbers using a whirling arm device inside a vacuum chamber. Measured values were near 0.75 at sea ... -
Natural Daylight Illumination in Northeastern United States
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Natural illumination intensity at five cities in northeastern United States is presented for each hour of the day. In addition, the mean relative optical air mass of opaque and thin overcast cloud cover is given for each ... -
Computation of Incoming Solar Radiation over the Equatorial Pacific
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)This paper discusses findings in regard to cloud distributions over the equatorial Pacific and the development of a method, compatible with actual cloud distributions, for using certain existing formulas to compute incoming ... -
Sky Cover Influence on Total Hemispheric Radiation During Daylight Hours
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Effects of sky cover variations on daylight total hemispheric radiation were determined from measurements made at Columbia, Mo. Total hemispheric radiation was measured by a Beckman and Whitley radiometer, solar radiation ... -
Anisotropic Solar Reflectance over White Sand, Snow and Stratus Clouds
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Integrated directional reflectances and relative anisotropy were measured over stratus clouds, snow and white gypsum sand using the Nimbus F-3 medium resolution radiometer (MRIR) and a siliconcell pyranometer mounted on a ... -
Survey of Relationships Between Rainfall Rate and Radar Reflectivity in the Measurement of Precipitation
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)Numerous investigations have been made in the last two decades from both a direct measurement of the radar reflectivity and the rainfall amount, as well as indirect measurements of the raindrop size spectra. Calculations ... -
Variance Spectrum Analysis of Doppler Radar Observations in Continuous Precipitation
(American Meteorological Society, 1968)A continuous record of precipitation falling through a fixed volume in space was obtained by means of a vertically-pointing pulsed-Doppler radar during a period of continuous precipitation. The range gate was held fixed ...
