Book Description
The results of a spectral analysis of the horizontal fluctuations in temperature and liquid water content measured at four altitudes daily, during four days in the life cycle of a storm moving eastward across the United States, are discussed, along with a synoptic analysis of the storm. The storm itself was typical of the large-scale systems traveling across the continent during the winter season. Each stage of the storm (development, maturity, and dissipation) exhibited distinctive spectral characteristics. In addition, the evidence is strong that the age and previous history of the system greatly affect the fluctuation spectra. The results of this study support the thesis of a characteristic spectral signature for cloud systems as well as for single clouds. This method may be used to determine the present growth stage of a storm system and its potential for future development. (Author).

Thriving on Our Changing Planet
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and MedicinePublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309467578
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 717
Book Description
We live on a dynamic Earth shaped by both natural processes and the impacts of humans on their environment. It is in our collective interest to observe and understand our planet, and to predict future behavior to the extent possible, in order to effectively manage resources, successfully respond to threats from natural and human-induced environmental change, and capitalize on the opportunities â€" social, economic, security, and more â€" that such knowledge can bring. By continuously monitoring and exploring Earth, developing a deep understanding of its evolving behavior, and characterizing the processes that shape and reshape the environment in which we live, we not only advance knowledge and basic discovery about our planet, but we further develop the foundation upon which benefits to society are built. Thriving on Our Changing Planet presents prioritized science, applications, and observations, along with related strategic and programmatic guidance, to support the U.S. civil space Earth observation program over the coming decade.
