Stastical Studies on Thunderstorm Situations in the Netherlands
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Records from a network of volunteer thunderstorm observers in the Netherlands are used with routine synoptic and upper-air data to investigate relations between storm severity and almost simultaneous (just prior) meteorological ... -
An Objective Method for Forecasting Thunderstorms in the Netherlands
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)An objective method has been developed for forecasting the occurrence of thunderstorms. Four parameters been selected one of which has been derived from the 500-mb contour pattern. The other three parameters (atmospheric ... -
Mesoanalysis of a Severe South Florida Hailstorm
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)The occurrence of large surface hail is extremely rare in low latitudes. In an effort to explain this deficiency, this paper presents a mesoscale analysis of an isolated case of large hail over Miami, Florida, in March ... -

Some Measurements of Balloon Motions with Doppler Radar
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Ascending one-and two-meter diameter spherical balloons have been tracked with a pulse Doppler radar to determine the characteristics of the radial component of balloon velocity. Spectral analysis of the velocity records ... -
Spherical Balloon Wind Sensor Behavior
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Response characteristics of freely rising superpressured spheres of different configurations are discussed. Wind profile data measured by the superpressured balloon method, the smoke trail method, the AN/GMD-1 rawinsonde ... -
Self-Induced Balloon Motions
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Rigid spherical balloons were released in still air to assess magnitudes of possible self-induced motion. They were found to exhibit oscillations similar to those previously reported for rubber balloons. These oscillations ... -

Superpressure Balloons for Weather Research
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)A system of fabricating and flying several types of superpressure balloons has been developed. This system includes balloons which are launched from the ground and from a light aircraft. These balloons have been used for ... -
A Microbarophone for Dust Devil Pressure Measurements
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)The design and construction of a small, highly responsive pressure instrument with a sensitivity of approximately 0.1 mb is discussed. Two pressure sensors, or microbarophones, were used on a mobile tower to measure pressure ... -
An Improved Total Hemispherical Radiometer
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Modification of the Beckman and Whitley total hemispherical radiometer is described. In the improved model, the thermojunction embedded in the sensing plate is replaced by three embedded thermistors connected to associated ... -
A Statistical Study of Dendroclimatic Relationships in South Central Wisconsin
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Stepwise multiple regression analysis applied to annual radial growth increments of mid-latitude hardwood samples indicates that satisfactorily high levels of reduction of the growth variance can he achieved only by utilizing ... -
An Empirical Method of Determining Summer Wet-Bulb Design Temperatures
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)An empirical method is developed for determining monthly cumulative frequency distributions of the hourly wet-bulb temperatures. The monthly distributions for the four warmest months can be combined into a four-month ... -
On the Mutual Relation between Stratosphere and Troposphere during Periods of Stratospheric Warmings in Winter
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)An investigation of tropospheric conditions before and after pronounced stratospheric midwinter warmings indicates an interdependence of developments in the two atmospheric regions. The eleven northern hemisphere winters ... -
Jet-Stream Structure over the Central United States Determined from Aircraft Observations
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)Aircraft observations over the central United States are used to construct empirical models of jet streams that agree well with models based on data from other regions of the mid-latitudes. Individual jet streams conform ... -
A Study of Causes of Hail
(American Meteorological Society, 1965)An analysis has been made of the incidence of hall in southern Alberta during the years 1959?1963. The study has shown that warm air is necessary for major hail. An effective lower limit of ?1C at 700 mb in the vicinity ...
