... The air just sit there and doesn't get stirred. ... Normally, the air is hottest near the ground and gets cooler as you go up. ... If it weren't for the temperature profile, convection wouldn't occur: Because the temperature decreases with altitude, cold air sits on top of hot air, allowing convection. ... The air above the ground is hot, the air above the water is cold. ... The land cools down faster than the sea, so the air above the ground is colder than the air above the water. ...

Calculation of Atmospheric Emission Measured by Gregorian Feed Horns Paul F. Goldsmith September 16, 2001 As we use higher frequencies, emission from the Earth's atmosphere becomes more sig- ni cant. ... To use this program, you input the altitude, temperature, and precipitable water vapor (pwv) in mm. ... I have run the ATM code for several values of pwv with plausible temperature, and generated the zenith sky temperature as a function of frequency between 1 and 15 GHz. ...

Physical conditions of the interstellar medium in galaxies are closely linked to the ambient radiation field and the heating of dust grains. ... The KINGFISH profiles are well suited to examining trends of dust temperature Tdust and нІ because they span a factor of ~200 in the ISRF intensity heating the bulk of the dust mass, Umin. Results from fitting the profile SEDs suggest that, on average, Tdust, dust optical depth о„dust, and Umin decrease with radius. ...

... We are developing the following problems: a) combine optical and microwave technic to the indication of non-linear surface waves and wave breaking field; b) modelling of microwave propagation in a multiphase air-water interface; c) obtain quantitative dependencies of microwave radiation on geometry and statistics of wave breaking field in ocean surface; d) monitoring of ocean surface states using optical amd microwave airspace data sets. ... Important issue is spray and underwater bubbles. ...

In the outermost layers of stars - especially cool stars - and in interstellar space, temperatures become very low and conditions are favourable for atoms to combine as molecules and for molecules to aggregate as grains of dust. What sorts of molecules and dust are formed in interstellar space? This dust is very important for us because eventually it is gathers together to form new stars and planets. ... R Corona Borealis ( R CrB ) was the first star discovered to show this dimming in 1795. ...

Next: Analysis of a Up: No Title Previous: One example . We will start with a simple wavelet: the `Mexican hat', shown on Fig. ... Figure 2: The Mexican hat wavelet . It is important to note that, for this to be a wavelet, the positive and negative areas `under' the curve must cancel out. This is known as the admissibility condition. Analytically, the Mexican hat wavelet is represented by . ... Selection of the wavelet shape is one of the important decisions on the user's part. ...

... There are a number of "fixes" that are important for short wavelength ATCA data, especially at the 3mm band. ... By default atfix applies the ``standard'' gain/elevation model for the antennas. ... As mentioned in Section 11.1.2 , the ATCA uses a paddle to measure an above atmosphere system temperature. ... On the night of an ATCA reconfiguration, a solution for the antenna positions is derived. ... Task atfix corrects the data for an improved antenna location solution via the dantpos parameter. ...
