Creator:: Friesner, Richard, Nairn, John A., and Sauer, Kenneth
Abstract:: We have developed a method for determining the response of a static, partially ordered ensemble of molecules to various types of electromagnetic probes. In our formalism a physical model is constructued for the orientational distribution function, which is represented as a volume integral over a set of weighting functions. Procedures...

Abstract:: Dimensionless structure functions such as kurtosis of the velocity gradients are computed from aircraft data for a variety of atmospheric situations in order to characterize the intermittency of the turbulence. It is necessary to distinguish between small scale intermittency of the velocity gradients organized by the individual main eddies and...

Abstract:: Subsurface temperature data and surface meteorological data are analyzed from thermistor chain moorings deployed near 50°N, 140°W during the Storm Transfer and Response Experiment (STREX). The upper-ocean heat and potential energy (PE) contents to 90 m are examined for an 18-day period and their changes compared to the sources and...

Abstract:: A closed-tube bioassay with Poria placenta was used to measure residual fungistatic vapors in wood fumigated with methylisothiocyanate (MIT). This bioassay showed an inverse linear relationship between fungal growth and the amount of MIT in the wood samples. For fumigated increment-core sections of unseasoned Douglas-fir heartwood (4.8 mm in diameter...

Creator:: Turko, Bojan T., Nairn, John A., and Sauer, Kenneth
Abstract:: A single‐photon timing system is described which is capable of extracting fluorescence lifetimes as short as 25 ps. The system is an improved version of an earlier apparatus. The new system uses a synchronously pumped, mode‐locked dye laser with 10‐ps pulses operating at 82‐MHz repetition rate. A fast photodetector and...

Abstract:: The depth of the nocturnal boundary layer, modeled by diagnostic functions of surface fluxes, is only weakly related to “observed” depths estimated from observed profiles of either wind or temperature as has been shown in previous studies. This is partly due to influences of nonstationarity and large errors in the...

Creator:: Denbo, D. W. and Allen, J. S.
Abstract:: Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis in the frequency domain is extended to complex time series. EOFs are calculated from the eigenvectors of the band-averaged rotary cross-spectral matrix. This gives EOF amplitude and phase for negative and positive frequencies, corresponding to clockwise and anticlockwise rotation for the hodograph model. Rotary EOF...

Creator:: Denbo, D. W. and Allen, J. S.
Abstract:: The generation of an alongshore mean flow by the nonlinear interaction of forced barotropic shelf waves over a continental margin is studied using a wind-forced, ƒ-plane model with bottom friction in an attempt to develop a model for poleward eastern boundary undercurrents. It is assumed that the Rossby number is...

Creator:: Nairn, John A., Friesner, Richard, Frank, Harry A., and Sauer, Kenneth
Abstract:: We have developed a new approach to the theory of linear dichroism in partially ordered systems. The description of the partially ordered ensemble uses a density of states function, D(θ, ϕ, Δ), which gives the probability that the direction of polarization for incident polarized light has spherical angles θ and...

Abstract:: Internal gravity waves measured under the Arctic pack ice were strikingly different from measurements at lower latitudes. The total wave energy, integrated over the internal wave frequency band, was lower by a factor of 0.03-0.07, and the spectral slope at high frequency was nearly -1 in contrast to the -2...
