Resource partitioning of four sympatric mynas and starlings (Sturnidae) in Thailand

Creator:: Tunhikorn, Schwann
Abstract:: Patterns of resource partitioning among 4 sympatric sturnids: [black-collared starling (Sturnus nigricollis), pied starling (S. contra), common myna (Acridotheres tristis) and crested myna (A. javanicus) were determined based on their food habits, foraging and nesting microhabitat selection, morphology and behavior. The study was conducted from March 1986 to June 1988...

INDOEX aerosol optical depths and radiative forcing derived from AVHRR

Creator:: Tahnk, William Richard
Abstract:: The Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX) had as a primary objective determining the radiative forcing due to anthropogenic aerosols over climatologically significant space and time scales: the Indian Ocean during the winter monsoon, January-March. During the winter monsoon, polluted, low-level air from the Asian subcontinent blows over the Arabian Sea and...

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...

A numerical study of coastal stratus cloud in a two-dimensional meso-scale model

Creator:: Lee, Tae Young
Abstract:: A two-dimensional numerical mesoscale model, which ic1udes radiative and turbulent transfers, has been constructed to study the formation, development and dissipation of coastal stratus cloud under an inversion. In the model, the delta-Eddington and emissivity approximations are used for the solar and thermal radiative transfers, respectively. K-theory parameterization is adopted...

Numerical studies of mesoscale eddies using quasigeostrophic and primitive equation ocean models

Creator:: Batteen, Mary L.
Abstract:: The dynamical role of mesoscale eddies in the ocean general circulation is investigated using eddy-resolving quasigeostrophic (QG) and primitive equation (FE) models which are parametrically identical. The results of both QG and FE numerical experiments in mid-latitude, rectangular ocean basins are systematically intercompared and extensively analyzed in terms of basic...

Boundaries of research : civilian leadership, military funding, and the international network surrounding the development of numerical weather prediction in the United States

Creator:: Harper, Kristine C.
Abstract:: American meteorology was synonymous with subjective weather forecasting in the early twentieth century. Controlled by the Weather Bureau and with no academic programs of its own, the few hundred extant meteorologists had no standing in the scientific community. Until the American Meteorological Society was founded in 1919, meteorologists had no...

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...
