The Medicinal Waters at Burnham-On-Sea
as a seaside resort, with splendid sands and sand-dunes, offering admirable schools and (in partnership with Berrow) possessing a championship golf-course. It also gains some reflected glory by reason of Berrow having been the birthplace of this year's " open " golf champion, Mr. Reginald Whitcombe. Nevertheless, Burnham made its first bid for a place in the sunshine about one hundred years ago...
متن کاملMirages with atmospheric gravity waves.
The temperature inversions that produce superior mirages are capable of supporting gravity (buoyancy) waves of very low frequency and long wavelength. This paper describes the optics of single mode gravity waves that propagate in a four-layer atmosphere. Images calculated by ray tracing show that (1) relatively short waves add a fine structure to the basic static mirage, and (2) long waves prod...
متن کاملAtmospheric Correction of Meris Imagery above Case-2 Waters
RESUME This paper describes an atmospheric correction algorithm designed for the Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) with special emphasis to case-2 waters based on inverse modeling of radiative transfer calculations by using artificial neural network techniques. The presented correction scheme is implemented as a direct inversion of spectral top-of-atmosphere (TOA) radiances into sp...
متن کاملSimulation of mirages.
A mirage is seen when atmospheric refraction distorts or displaces an image. We describe a mirage simulator that uses digital imaging equipment to generate mirage images from normal photographs. The simulation program relocates horizonal image lines into positions that they appear to occupy, according to rays traced from observer to object. Image-brightness adjustments are not required; we show...
متن کاملBright superior mirages.
Superior mirages of unusual brightness are occasionally observed. Two such cases, photographed over the frozen surface of Lake Winnipeg, Canada, are documented. Visually, these mirages appear as featureless bright barriers far out on the lake. They are just images of the lake ice, yet the luminance in one case was 2.5 times (in the other, 1.7 times) the luminance of the ice surface in front of ...
