Project Findings

There were six cloud interception events at the Whiteface site (July 4-5, 7, 16, 17, 20 and 22) occurring at different times of the day. The events lasted anywhere from two to twelve hours. Samples were collected hourly, except when the liquid water content was extremely high, in which case samples were collected every half-hour. At Davis there were also six fog events (December 18, January 4-5, 9, 10, 10-11 and 11-12) that generally began in the middle of the night and continued into mid-morning. There the liquid water content was generally rather low, so samples were collected either hourly or every two hours.
