SNOWFALL AT SUMMIT, CAL.

TGF signaling at the summit

Ligands belonging to the transforming growth factor (TGF) superfamily have emerged as major regulators of a wide variety of developmental events, ranging from the earliest steps in germ layer patterning of the pre-gastrula embryo to tissue healing, regeneration and homeostasis in the adult. Recently, Caroline Hill and Bob Lechleider organized the third in a bi-annual series of FASEB meetings on...

Satellite and Aircraft Observations of Snowfall Signature at Microwave Frequencies

Snowfall signatures over ocean are analyzed using satellite and airborne microwave radiometer measurements at frequencies ranging from 37 to 340 GHz. Data used in the analysis include satellite data from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer – EOS and the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit – B, and airborne data from a millimeter-wave radiometer and a dual-frequency precipitation radar durin...

Interannual Variability of Snowfall Events of Southwest Missouri and Snowfall-to-Liquid Water Equivalents at the Springfield WFO

In order to address the difficult issue of forecasting snowfall amounts for the general public, forecasters must be intimately familiar with the climatological behavior of snowfall events and associated snowfall-to-liquid (SL) precipitation ratios that accompany events impacting the region. In Southwest Missouri, an average of 4 to 5 snowfall events of 3 inches or more occurred every year withi...

Snowfall in High Southern Latitudes

based upon t(h)•e atmospheric water balance equation pr vide seasonal precipitation amou ts for areas l rger than I xl km 2. For broad-scale studies in the continental interior net snow accumulation closely approximates precipitation. Annual precipitation is relatively high over the marginal ice slopes in relation to amounts in the interior. This meridional distribution is due to the orographic...
