A Study of a Non-Deepening Tropical Disturbance
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)Data for a 3-day period from an experimental region formed by 6 islands of the Windward Group in the West Indies, a research vessel in the tropical Atlantic, an instrumented aircraft, and TIROS VI and VII form the basis ... -
The Release of Latent Heat of Condensation in a Simple Precipitation Forecast Model
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A method is proposed for deriving a useful quantitative precipitation forecast from a physical model in which no account is taken of the release of latent heat of condensation. The approach is to calculate, on the basis ... -
Automated Nationwide Forecasts of Maximum and Minimum Temperature
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)An objective method of forecasting maximum and minimum surface temperatures for periods from 12 to 60 hr in advance is discussed and illustrated. The method makes use of multiple regression equations derived for 108 cities ... -
On Theoretical Limits of Predictability
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)The question of whether long-range deterministic predictions of the atmosphere are possible is examined directly in terms of growth of initial errors. Simple physical models are considered in which a unit mass moves at ... -

The “Chirp” Digital Radiosonde
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)This paper reports on a digital measurement (?chirp?) system which has application for a wide range of meteorological and earth satellite measurements. The system employs a simple concept in which a voltage pulse, proportional ... -
A Constant Temperature Wind Component Meter and its Performance Characteristics
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A constant temperature-difference, hot thermocouple anemometer and component meter have been developed from a previously existing instrument. The constant temperature-difference mode of sensing eliminates the need for ... -
High-Resolution Measurement of Air Temperatures and Temperature Differences
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A system for high-resolution measurement of air temperatures and temperature differences is described. This system is designed for routine field use in conjunction with high-quality data-processing equipment, and is designed ... -
An Approach to the Classification of Meteorological Satellite Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A system is presented for classifying the meteorological and geophysical features observed in meteorological satellite photographs and photofacsimiles. The classification scheme was designed as part of a computerized system ... -
The Measurement of Temperature in the Stratosphere and Mesosphere
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)Careful consideration of the heat transfer equations for a rocket-borne stratospheric temperature sensor in the form of a spherical bead thermistor coupled with an experimental analysis of the physical, thermodynamic and ... -
Radiometric Inference of Stratospheric Water Vapor
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)By varying the amount of water vapor as input to the radiative power transfer equation, assuming a constant carbon dioxide and varying ozone distribution, it is possible to infer stratospheric water vapor from broadband ... -
The Relationship Between Stratospheric Circulation Patterns and Radioactive Debris in Early 1963
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)The large scale atmospheric nuclear testing in 1961 and 1962 afforded the opportunity of observing changes in the distribution of radioactivity and its relationship to stratospheric circulation patterns. Air-craft observations ... -
Continuous Snowfall Replicator
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A continuous snowfall replicator has been developed using the ?roll-on? Formvar technique to apply a continuous strip of liquid Formvar to a 35-mm motion picture film base. Snow crystals which settle onto the moving strip ... -
A Continuous Ice Nucleus Counter and its Application to Tracking in the Troposphere
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)A continuous, automatic, and portable instrument was developed for detecting and counting ice nuclei in the field and laboratory. The nuclei are activated in a cloud chamber and the resulting ice crystals are counted by ... -
Characteristics of Silver Iodide Ice Nuclei Originating from Anhydrous Ammonia-Silver Iodide Complexes: Part I
(American Meteorological Society, 1967)Two methods of generating silver iodide ice nuclei have been investigated, neither employing thermal processing. A 3000-liter isothermal cloud chamber controllable over the range of 0 to ?20 ± 0.1C was designed and fabricated ...
