Book Description
Describes the DoD Skew T, Log P diagram and provides instructions on its use. Instructions include hos to plot data on the diagram and how to use the data to determine unreported meteorological elements and atmospheric stability. Also tells how to analyze discontinuities, stable layers, and clouds, as well as how to use the plotted diagram to help forecast meteorological phenomena such as aircraft icing and severe convective storms. The March 1990 revision adds several new stability indices and forecasting techniques currently displayed on the Satellite Data Handling System (SDHS), the Automated Weather Distribution System (AWDS), and microcomputer Skew T programs.

Seize the High Ground
Author: James A. Walker
Publisher: Government Printing Office
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
"[Seize the high ground is a] narrative history of the Army's aerospace experience from the 1950s to the present. The focus is on ballistic missile defense, from the early NIKE-HERCULES missile program through the SAFEGUARD acquisition site allowed by the 1972 ABM Treaty to the more advanced 'Star Wars' concepts studies toward the end of the century. [What is] covered is not only the technological response to the threat but the organizational and tactical development of the commands and units responsible for the defense mission"--CMH website.

Algorithms for Generating a Skew-T, Log P Diagram and Computing Selected Meteorological Quantities
Author: G. S. Stipanuk
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
The paper discusses numerical methods of computing meteorological quantities which are usually manually derived from analysis on a SKEW-T log p DIAGRAM. The numerical methods used were selected for their simplicity and accuracy. A mathematical characterization of the SKEW-T and algorithms for computing several meteorological quantities are presented. (Author).

A Vast Machine
Author: Paul N. Edwards
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262290715
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 547
Book Description
The science behind global warming, and its history: how scientists learned to understand the atmosphere, to measure it, to trace its past, and to model its future. Global warming skeptics often fall back on the argument that the scientific case for global warming is all model predictions, nothing but simulation; they warn us that we need to wait for real data, “sound science.” In A Vast Machine Paul Edwards has news for these skeptics: without models, there are no data. Today, no collection of signals or observations—even from satellites, which can “see” the whole planet with a single instrument—becomes global in time and space without passing through a series of data models. Everything we know about the world's climate we know through models. Edwards offers an engaging and innovative history of how scientists learned to understand the atmosphere—to measure it, trace its past, and model its future.
