Book Description
In order to establish a meteorological forecasting system, it is necessary to find a direct relationship between measurable physical states of the atmosphere and the end product, the weather element to be forecast. The long range forecaster is quite limited in his choice of physical parameters. In fact only the very large-scale dynamics of the atmosphere which can be expressed in terms of mean pressure patterns are amenable to long range analysis. Thus the problem reduces to finding a link between mean planetary pressure patterns and precipitation in the Hawaiian Islands

Cloud Seeding Operations in the Bishop Creek, California Watershed
Author: Ferguson Hall
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Precipitation (Meteorology)
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
Cloud seeding operations using dry ice dispensed from aircraft have been carried out by the California Electric Power Co. in the High Sierra near Bishop, Calif., since February 1948. Limited visual observations suggest that snow showers can be produced from non-precipitating orographic clouds by seeding, the snow reaching the ground at the higher elevations. Comparison of the annual runoff from the seeded watershed with that from adjacent areas for the 3 years 1948, 1949, and 1950 showed a positive departure in the 1948-49 season significant at the 1 percent level. Significant departures did not appear during the other two years, but the average for the 3 years was significant at the 5 percent level. From the same analysis it might be estimated that the average annual flow during the 3-year period was augmented by 9 percent, with 90 percent confidence limits being zero and 18 percent. On the other hand the unusual circulation prevailing during the 1948-49 winter may have been responsible, at least in part, for the departure in flow during the season. Snow pack comparison did not indicate a significant increase in the Bishop area, but it is shown that such a result is not incompatible with the possibility that additional precipitation was produced which was not reflected in the snow surveys.
