Colored Hail and Snow

Hail suppression and society.

An interdisciplinary assessment of hail suppression in the past, present, and future has shown it to be currently scientifically uncertain but a potentially beneficial future technology. An established suppression technology would be widely adopted in the Great Plains, providing benefits to agriculture and secondarily to the American consumer. Development of a reliable technology will require a...

Hail Sensing Probes: Feasibility Analysis for Probes to Monitor and Study Hail

This work presents the feasibility study regarding the realization of hail sensing probes for remote sensing and study of hail. The probes are designed as artificial hailstones in order to study both the physical properties of the portion of atmosphere where the formation of hail occurs and the modification of atmospheric conditions while the hailstones are falling to the ground. The basic idea...

Hail types and Distribution of Related Factors

Currently, many researchers have studied the hail cloud system from different aspects. Mainly including: the relationship between development of the thundercloud and the changing of meteorological elements; the analysis of the distribution character of hail spectrum; observation of the micro-structure of the hail cloud with the satellite and radar; distinguish the hail cloud from thundercloud w...

HAIL: Hierarchical Adaptive Interface Layout

We present a framework to adapt software to the needs of individuals with severe motion disabilities who use mouse substitution interfaces. Typically, users are required to adapt to the interfaces that they wish to use. We propose interfaces that change and adapt to the user and their individual abilities. The Hierarchical Adaptive Interface Layout (HAIL) model is a set of specifications for th...
