Research Experience for Undergraduates in the North Dakota Tracer Experiment (NDTE)

这项提议将支持本科生在1993年夏季俾斯麦/北达科他州地区的对流实地项目期间进行研究。一个称为北达科他州示踪器实验的实地方案计划在1993年6月21日至7月30日期间进行。该项目的重点是研究活跃增长的对流云中的输送、扩散、冰核和降水增长过程。主要的科学目标是增加对自然云和播撒云中冰的形成及其与随后降水(包括冰雹)发展的关系的了解。

This proposal will support undergraduate students to pursue research during a convective field project in the summer of 1993 in the Bismarck/North Dakota area. A field program called the North Dakota Tracer Experiment is planned for the period 21 June - 30 July 1993. The focus of the project is the study of the transport, dispersion, ice nucleation, and precipitation growth processes in actively growing convective clouds. The primary scientific goal is to increase understanding about ice initiation in natural and seeded clouds, and its relation to the subsequent development of precipitation (including hail).
