The design and evaluation of three advanced daylighting systems: Light shelves, light pipes and skylights
(American Solar Energy Society, 1994-06)
We present results from the design and evaluation of three advanced daylighting systems: a light shelf, a light pipe, and a skylight. These systems use optical films and an optimized geometry to passively intercept and ...
Scaling laws for river networks
(Physical Review E - Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, 1996)
On the blow-up of solutions to some semilinear and quasilinear reaction-diffusion systems
(Rocky Mountain Journal of Mathematics, 1994)
TGF alpha can act as a chemoattractant to perioptic mesenchymal cells in developing mouse eyes
(Development (Cambridge, England), 1995)
Piecewise Tendency Diagnosis of Dynamical Processes Governing the Development of an Upper-Tropospheric Mobile Trough
(American Meteorological Society, 1996-11-01)
The intensification and evolution of midlatitude upper-tropospheric mobile troughs may be viewed in terms of the isentropic advection and deformation of the tropopause potential vorticity gradient. The potential vorticity ...
The vertical structure of New England coastal fronts
(American Meteorological Society, 1990-09-01)
Aircraft data from the New England Winter Storms Experiment (NEWSEX) are used to examine the vertical structure of four New England coastal fronts. The aircraft made multiple passes at varying elevations through the coastal ...
Using Tropopause Maps to Diagnose Midlatitude Weather Systems
(American Meteorological Society, 1998-10-01)
The use of potential vorticity (PV) allows the efficient description of the dynamics of nearly balanced atmospheric flow phenomena, but the distribution of PV must be simply represented for ease in interpretation. ...
Comments on “The Intensification of the Low-Level Jet during the Development of Mesoscale Convective Systems on a Mei-Yu Front”
(American Meteorological Society, 1999-09-01)
The recent article by Chen et al. (1998; henceforth Chen) concludes that three processes were important to the development of a particular low-level jet (LLJ) associated with a mei-yu front: (1) a transverse circulation ...
A Climatology, Synoptic Assessment, and Thermodynamic Evaluation for Cloud-to-Ground Lightning in Georgia: A study for the 1996 Summer Olympics
(American Meteorological Society, 1996-07-01)
A lightning climatology within 50 km of nine outdoor venue locations for the 1996 Summer Olympics has been produced. Spatial and temporal patterns were analyzed for July and August from 1986 through 1993. Unusually active ...
Radiosonde Penetration of an Undilute Cumulonimbus Anvil
(American Meteorological Society, 1993-06-01)
An example is presented of the serendipitous radiosonde penetration through the western edge of a rapidly growing undilute cumulonimbus anvil above 200 mb by an operationally released radiosonde balloon. The sounding is ...
