Statistics of Peculiar Velocities from Cosmic Strings
We calculate the probability distribution of a single component of peculiar velocities due to cosmic strings, smoothed over regions with a radius of several h 1 Mpc. The probability distribution is shown to be Gaussian to good accuracy, in agreement with the distribution of peculiar velocities deduced from the 1.9 Jy IRAS redshift survey. Using the normalization of parameters of the cosmic stri...
متن کاملModeling Ice Storm Climatology
Extreme weather events such as ice storms cause significant damage to life and property. Accurately forecasting ice storms sufficiently in advance to offset their impacts is very challenging because they are driven by atmospheric processes that are complex and not completely defined. Furthermore, such forecasting has to consider the influence of a changing climate on relevant atmospheric variab...
متن کاملIce Storm Damage to Virginia Coastal Plain Forests dur- ing the Christmas 1998 Ice Storm
On December 23-25, 1998, a major ice storm struck southeastern Virginia The storm-deposited glaze ice felled trees and limbs, causing a power outage and highway blockage. Between Februmy and April, 1999, we recorded occurrence, severity, and type of damage to trees over 2.5 cm dbh in nine mostly gently sloping plots in Matoaka Woods at the College of William and Macy. Frequency and severity of ...
متن کاملProfiling Cloud Liquid Water by Combining Active and Passive Microwave Measurements with Cloud Model Statistics
A method for combining ground-based passive microwave radiometer retrievals of integrated liquid water (LWP), radar reflectivity profiles (Z ), and statistics of a cloud model is proposed for deriving cloud liquid water profiles (LWC). A dynamic cloud model is used to determine Z–LWC relations and their errors as functions of height above cloud base. The cloud model is also used to develop an L...
متن کاملHigh-quality oxygen measurements from profiling floats:
Two state-of-the-art profiling floats were equipped with novel optode-based oceanographic oxygen sensors. Both floats were simultaneously deployed in the central Labrador Sea Gyre on Sept. 7, 2003. They drift at a depth of 800 dbar and perform weekly profiles of temperature, salinity and oxygen in the upper 2000 m of the water column. The initial results from the first 6 months of operation are...
