Comments on “A New Look at the Israeli Cloud Seeding Experiments”
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)Rangno and Hobbs?s (RH) paper is a scattergun attack on the Israeli rain enhancement experiments that has no basis, as shown in this comment. This approach, unfortunately, has served to complicate rather than clear up ... -

Mesoscale Variations of Water Vapor Inferred from the Millimeter-Wave Imaging Radiometer during TOGA COARE
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)Autocorrelation analysis was applied to data acquired by NASA?s Millimeter-wave Imaging Radiometer during the 1992?93 Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response Experiment to quantify the spatial ... -
Comments on “Surface Measurements of Solar Irradiance: A Study of the Spatial Correlation between Simultaneous Measurements at Separated Sites”
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)tract -
Simulation of Atmospheric Boundary Layer Processes Using Local- and Nonlocal-Closure Schemes
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)A soil?vegetation?atmospheric boundary layer model was developed to study the performance of two local-closure and two nonlocal-closure boundary layer mixing schemes for use in meteorological and air quality simulation ... -
Estimation of Precipitation Area and Rain Intensity Based on the Microphysical Properties Retrieved from NOAA AVHRR Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)This paper investigates the feasibility of a quantitative estimation of precipitation from space, based on retrieval of microphysical properties of cloud tops using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer data. The effective ... -
A New Model of the Oceanic Evaporation Duct
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)Failure to consider anomalous propagation of microwave radiation in the troposphere may result in erroneous meteorological radar measurements. The most commonly occurring anomalous propagation phenomenon over the ocean is ... -
Estimates of Threshold Wind Speeds for Snow Transport Using Meteorological Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)The threshold wind speed for snow transport is related to properties of the surface snowpack: snow particle bonding, cohesion, and kinetic friction. These properties are controlled by meteorological factors. A method is ... -
Comments on “The Window Probability Matching Method for Rainfall Measurements with Radar”
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)No abstract available. -
Numerical Comparison of Two Ice Crystal Formation Mechanisms on Snowfall Enhancement from Ground-Based Aerosol Generators
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)Two mechanisms of ice crystal formation, contact freezing and very rapid condensation freezing, were applied to numerical simulations of ground-based seeding with the Guide Model, an orographic cloud model, to study whether ... -
Dynamics of the Katabatic Wind Confluence Zone near Siple Coast, West Antarctica
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)The surface wind pattern over the ice sheets of Antarctica is irregular with marked areas of airflow confluence near the coastal margins. Where cold air from a large interior area of the ice sheet converges (a confluence ... -
Spray Irrigation Effects on Surface-Layer Stability in an Experimental Citrus Orchard during Winter Freezes
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)Observations taken by two surface radiation and energy budget stations deployed in the University of Florida/Institute for Food and Agricultural Service experimental citrus orchard in Gainesville, Florida, have been analyzed ... -
An Investigation of Flow Regimes Affecting the Mexico City Region
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)The Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS) is used to investigate the detailed mesoscale flow structure over the Mexico City region for a 3-day period in February 1991. The model simulation is compared with rawinsonde ... -
Modeling Topographic Solar Radiation Using GOES Data
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)In this paper the authors present an algorithm that combines solar radiation fields derived from Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) observations with digital elevation data to produce topographically ... -
The IAGL Land Surface Model
(American Meteorological Society, 1997)A model that computes the fluxes of energy and momentum between the land surface and the atmosphere is presented. It is designed to serve as a lower boundary in a mesoscale atmospheric model and is intended to be used to ...
