Factors influencing the atmospheric aerosol composition at two sites in western Oregon

Creator:

Ko, Lih-jong

Abstract:

Fine and coarse particles were collected for eight weeks during the summer of 1991, at a coastal site (Yaquina Head) and a non-industrial site (Corvallis) in Western Oregon to characterize the aerosol composition and evaluate whether the sites are appropriate for sampling "background" marine air. Concentrations of up to 11...

Properties of low-level marine clouds as deduced from advanced very high resolution radiometer satellite observations

Creator:

Chang, Fu-Lung

Abstract:

A radiation model was developed for retrieving cloud visible optical depth, droplet effective radius, and cloud top emission temperature using AVHRR satellite observations at 0.63, 3.7, and 11 μm. The model was used to determine the sensitivity of the retrieved properties to various approximations often employed in such retrievals. Droplet...
