Computer-Assisted Data Acquisition and Analysis of Atmospheric Radiative Processes

地理系正在购买基于计算机的数据- 包括反照率计和日射强度计的采集系统 这将允许量化和分析辐射 平衡条款。 传感器系统由学生部署， 具有不同表面特性的各种部位（例如， 草，混凝土，砾石），以确定短波和长波 能流密度将结果与各种 大气能量平衡的理论模型。这些 研究有望使人们更好地了解

The Department of Geography is purchasing computer-based data- acquisition systems including albedometers and pyrradiometers that will allow quantification and analysis of radiation balance terms. Sensor systems are deployed by students at various sites with differing surface characteristics (e.g., grass, concrete, gravel) to determine shortwave and longwave energy-flux densities. The results are compared to various theoretical models for atmospheric energy balance. These studies are are expected to lead to a greater understanding of
