The Measurement of Shower Rainfall Using an Airborne Foil Impactor
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)Size spectra of raindrops are deduced from samples of shower rainfall obtained at cloud base during the course of a cloud seeding experiment. Estimates are made of the errors to be expected when an aircraft impactor is ... -
On the Usefulness of Satellite Infrared Measurements in the Determination of Cloud Top Heights and Areal Coverage
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The assumptions inherent in the determination of cloud top heights and areal coverage of clouds from infrared measurements made by satellites are discussed. The problems of interpretation caused by radiometer spatial ... -
Strato-Mesospheric Measurements of Density, Temperature, and Other Meteorological Variables in the Central Tropical Pacific
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The structure and state of the stratosphere and the mesosphere have been measured in the central tropical Pacific under a composite program of meteorological measurements. Density and temperature profiles between the ... -
Atmospheric Radon-222 Concentration Variation with Height and Time
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)Studies of concentrations of radon-222 in the atmosphere have been made from the surface of the earth to 16 meters elevation for eight periods of approximately 24 hours each. These studies provide over 650 individual ... -
Nucleation and the Wet Removal of Fallout
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The theory of condensation nucleation applied to radioactive fallout constituents shows that most tropospheric fallout particles are efficient nuclei in the production of warm rain. As a result it is found that the ... -
Air Cleaning by Convective Rains
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)The rain cleansing patterns observed in five rain situations, all characterized by convective structures, are presented. The data comprise radioactivity and pollen concentrations measured in sequential samples of rain water ... -
The Effect of Persistence in Cloud Seeding Experiments
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)A basic assumption made in the design of most cloud seeding experiments is that each seeded period is independent of those which preceded it, i.e., that no cumulative effects are present. It now appears that this assumption ... -
The Mesoscale Interaction of a Lake Breeze and Low Level Outflow from a Thunderstorm
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)In the summer of 1964 a program was initiated to observe physical and dynamical characteristics of the lake breeze at a site on the eastern side of Lake Michigan. Lake breeze development and progress inland was observed ... -
Objective Forecasts of Surface Temperature from One to Three Days in Advance
(American Meteorological Society, 1966)An objective method of forecasting surface temperature at 39 cities in the United States for 1, 2 and 3 days in advance has been developed and tested under operational conditions. This method utilizes daily input to multiple ... -
