Temporal coherence of individual turbulent patterns in atmospheric seeing.
We used a variation of the generalized scidar (scintillation detection and ranging) technique to examine the temporal coherence of turbulent patterns at different altitudes in the atmosphere above Palomar Observatory. This enables us to test the validity of a frozen turbulence hypothesis in the local reference frame of the moving atmosphere. The data set analyzed here contains three turbulent p...
متن کاملMeasuring Water Droplets to Detect Atmospheric Icing
This thesis describes the exploration of amethod tomeasure the droplet size and the concentration of atmospheric liquid water. The purpose is to find a cost effective technique to detect the conditions for icing on structures. Icing caused by freezing atmospheric water can be a significant problem for infrastructure such as power lines, roads and air traffic. About one third of the global insta...
متن کاملHigh-sensitivity instrument for measuring atmospheric NO2.
We report on the development of a high-sensitivity detection system for measuring atmospheric NO2 using a laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) technique around 440 nm. A tunable broad-band optical parametric oscillator laser pumped by the third harmonic of a Nd:YAG laser is used as a fluorescence excitation source. The laser wavelength is tuned at peak and bottom wavelengths around 440 nm alternati...
متن کاملMeasuring Atmospheric Scattering from Digital Image Sequences
Current environmental monitoring devices are limited in their capability of measuring atmospheric particulate matter (PM) over large areas. Quantifying the visual degrading effects of atmospheric scattering in digital images of urban scenery and correlating these effects to PM levels is a vital step in more practically monitoring our environment. Currently, image haze removal (or dehazing) tech...
