Main publication details
MARC recordExtinction coefficient measurement in falling snow with a forward scatter meter / Gary Koh.
| Title: | Extinction coefficient measurement in falling snow with a forward scatter meter / Gary Koh. |
| Author(s): | Koh, Gary. |
| Date: | 1987. |
| Publisher: | Hanover, NH: US Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory |
| In: | CRREL Special Report. (1987.), Vol. 87-4 (1987) |
| Abstract: | Meter designed to measure visible extinction coefficient in fog and tested in falling snow. Comparison of results with those obtained with transmissometer indicates that meter can be used successfully in falling snow. Different calibrations required for snow and fog are partially explained by examining effect of particle size on angular distribution of scattered light. |
| Notes: | CRREL Special Report. Vol. 87-4 :iii, 9 p. (1987). |
| Keywords: | 551.508.92 -- Visibility, measurement. 551.578.4 -- Ice needles, sleet, falling snow and graupel. E3 -- Glaciology: instruments and methods. |
