چکیده

The use of narrow beam filter radiometers with lidars goes back some considerable time. The CSIRO Marl< I radiometer was designed and constructed in 1970 (Platt 1971). Since then, improved versions (Marl< II and Marl< 111) have been constructed (Platt et al. 1987). Using the URAD method, much information has been obtained on the optical properties of cirrus (e.g., Platt et al. 1987, Platt and Harshvardhan 1988), as well on midlevel clouds (e,g" Platt and Bartusek 1974, Platt et al. 1978).

The Optical Properties of Equatorial Cirrus in the Pilot Radiation Observation Experiment

The development of a sensitive filter radiometer for the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program has been reported by Platt et al. (1994, 1995). The aim was to develop a reliable and fast instrument that could be used alongside a lidar to obtain near realtime optical properties of clouds, particularly high ice clouds, as they drifted over an ARM Cloud and Radiation Testbed (CART) site a...

Infrared Emission (500-2000 cm) of Laboratory Ice Clouds

The spectral infrared emission (500-2000 cm) of laboratory ice clouds has been measured with a fourier transform infrared spectrometer. A cloudscope (a novel microscope equipped with a video camera) captured cloud ice crystals for microphysical characterization of the cloud. Theoretical emission calculations based on modified Mie theory, observed crystal size distributions, and an approximation...

Application of the Kudryashov method and the functional variable method for the complex KdV equation

In this present work, the Kudryashov method and the functional variable method are used to construct exact solutions of the complex KdV equation. The Kudryashov method and the functional variable method are powerful methods for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear evolution equations.

Numerical solution of the one dimensional non-linear Burgers equation using the Adomian decomposition method and the comparison between the modified Local Crank-Nicolson method and the VIM exact ‎solution

The Burgers’ equation is a simplified form of the Navier-Stokes equations that very well represents their non-linear features. In this paper, numerical methods of the Adomian decomposition and the Modified Crank – Nicholson, used for solving the one-dimensional Burgers’ equation, have been compared. These numerical methods have also been compared with the analytical method. In contrast to...

On solving ordinary differential equations of the first order by updating the Lagrange multiplier in variational iteration ‎method

In this paper, we have proposed a new iterative method for finding the solution of ordinary differential equations of the first order. In this method we have extended the idea of variational iteration method by changing the general Lagrange multiplier which is defined in the context of the variational iteration method.This causes the convergent rate of the method increased compared with the var...
