Wind Studies Using Level Balloons
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Accuracy tests have been carried out on a 3-cm Decca W.F.2 radar by simultaneously tracking a single balloon with two radars. The errors in height and wind speed and direction arising from these tracking errors are discussed. ... -
Vertical Velocity Fluctuations in a Nocturnal Low-Level Jet
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Sonic anemometers were installed at four levels on the Cedar Hill television tower and operated for selected periods during three weeks in August 1963. One of the runs covered the entire history of a nocturnal low-level ... -
Kinetic Energy Production in a Mid-latitude Storm
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)The conversion of energy from available potential to kinetic is broken into spectral components in a manner which permits the study of this process in the vicinity of an extra-tropical cyclone. A case history is presented ... -
The Detection of Silver in Rainwater: Further Developments of Technique
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Details are presented of the experimental processes involved in the concentration of silver ions from water. Monitoring procedures which lead to improvements in reliability in the techniques are described. The performance ... -
The Detection of Silver in Rainwater: Analysis of Precipitation Collected from Cloud-seeding Experiments
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Measurements were made of the concentration of silver in precipitation samples collected in areas of Australia where cloud seeding with silver iodide has occurred. Silver was detected in 41 of 63 ?seeded? samples and in ... -
Cloud Seeding Against the 1964 Drought in the Northeast
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)A short account is given of seven cloud-seeding programs conducted in the summer and autumn of 1964 for drought relief in the Northeast, and evaluations of six of them by target-control regressions of normalized monthly ... -

Miniature Net Radiometer Improvements
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)An improved net radiometer was designed with increased sensitivity to match a ±5-mv potentiometer used in a multipoint recording system. Its sensitivity is sufficient to give a full-scale range of ±1.4 ly min?1, with a ... -
The Effect of Melting on Forced Convection Heat Transfer
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)The effect of melting on convective heat transfer between a melting body and surrounding fluid was studied quantitatively from the point of view of boundary layer theory, film theory and penetration theory. These studies ... -
A Mathematical Model for Air Flow in a Vegetative Canopy
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)The objectives of this study are to investigate the turbulent transfer of momentum within a vegetative canopy and also to develop a mathematical model which expresses the aerodynamic roughness effects of the surface boundary ... -
The Association of Low-Level Inversions with Surface Wind and Temperature at Point Arguello
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Inversions at Point Arguello, California, as detected in 4½ years by rawinsondes at 0400 and 1600 PST, are related to surface wind direction and speed and surface temperatures. Nocturnal inversions based below 1000 ft msl ... -
Comparison of Some Balloon Techniques
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Studies by various investigators have shown that rising spherical balloons exhibit self-induced lateral motions which can introduce errors when the balloons are used for wind soundings. Balloons operating in the subcritical ...
