In extension and confirmation of the work Bigg, observations on freezing large numbers drops distilled water, ranging from 10 μ to 1 cm in diameter suspended at interface two immiscible liquids order avoid nucleating effects solid surfaces, have established proportionality between logarithm droplet volume its temperature for a constant rate cooling. Such relationship appears characterize heterogeneous nucleation water droplets containing small foreign nuclei, it is interpreted terms being...
RADARSAT, the first Canadian remote-sensing spacecraft, is designed to provide Earth observation information for five years. The satellite scheduled launch in 1994. only payload instrument a 5.6-cm-wavelength (C-band) synthetic aperture imaging radar (SAR). RADARSAT will gather data on command up 28 min during each cycle of its 800-km (nominal) near-polar orbit. Image resolutions from 10 100 m at swath widths 45 500 km be available. mission reviewed, and design, characteristics,...
Selected data obtained during the first year of operation scanning multichannel microwave radiometer (SMMR) on board NIMBUS 7 satellite (launched in late October 1978) have been used to calculate, a global basis, various geophysical parameters over open oceans, polar regions, and terrain. Over oceans these calculations provided values for sea surface temperatures, near‐surface winds, atmospheric water vapor column, rainfall rates. In ice concentration, multiyear fraction, radiating...
RÉSUMÉLes exigences de la mission RADARSAT ainsi que les concepts organiques et opérationnels qui ont été développés pour étayer ces sont présentés dans cet article. Cette prévoit construction, le lancement l'exploitation du premier satellite canadien d'observation Terre, RADARSAT, l'établissement des installations au sol correspondantes. La charge utile est constituée par un radar à antenne synthétique (RAS), enregistreurs d'autres composants connexes. fonctionnera une orbite polaire...
The permeability of ice layers in the snowpack can have far reaching effects on its response to meltwater or rain. This is due presence veins liquid water at junctions crystals. It shown that size these very sensitive changes temperature, air pressure, and dissolved other material.
A model of magnetostriction ferromagnetic polycrystalline sheet has been devised based on the orientation distribution crystals and domain theory magnetization. Comparison with experimental data for silicon iron shows that gives a good numerical agreement at flux density 15 000 gauss qualitative description dependence density. It also is sensitive to preferred material variations in measured are largely attributable differences distribution.
Polycrystalline ice contains a three-dimensional network of water filled veins, whose size is function temperature among other parameters. In order to study heat transfer and from these model their arrangement around crystal necessary. The geometrical constraints this are discussed proposed. This compared various models, including that used by Frank (1968) for convection in the earth's mantle.
Software agent technology is currently based on fixed ontologies and languages, handcrafted for a particular application. The advent of massively distributed systems however calls not only common language between all agents involved but also the ability to autonomously adapt form concepts about novel experiences events. authors proposed method by which can new grounded in their own experience. This an improvement previous approaches because it tackle much wider range conceptual types...
