Evolution of aerosol research in India and the RAWEX–GVAX: an overview
Climate change has great significance in Asia in general, and India in particular; and atmospheric aerosols have a decisive role in this. The climate forcing potential of aerosols is closely linked to their optical, microphysical and chemical properties. Systematic efforts to characterize these properties over the Indian region started about 5 decades ago, and evolved over the years through con...
متن کاملAirborne particles washout: A case study investigated using Laser Radar
A portable laser radar system was installed at Manora Peak, Nainital (29° 22’ N, 79°27’ E, 1960 m MSL) under a scientific collaborative programme between National Atmospheric Research Laboratory (NARL), Gadanki and Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES), Nainital. The laser radar system provides the extinction of vertical distribution of airborne particles in the atmosp...
متن کاملThe Nainital-Cape Survey-III : A Search for Pulsational Variability in Chemically Peculiar Stars
Context. The Nainital-Cape survey is a dedicated research programme to search and study pulsational variability in chemically peculiar stars in the Northern Hemisphere. Aims. The aim of the survey is to search such chemically peculiar stars which are pulsationally unstable. Methods. The observations of the sample stars were carried out in high-speed photometric mode using a three-channel fast p...
متن کاملInvestigation of Vertical Wind Shear Characteristics Using 50m Meteorological Tower Data
Wind measurement is important for estimating wind energy potential, but it is relatively cost-intensive and often conducted at a narrow height from the ground level. The typical range of most turbine hub heights is from 30-50 m or even higher. Extrapolation on wind data thus becomes necessary to estimate the wind speed at different heights. Doing so requires the essential understanding of wind ...
متن کاملAerosol Characterization over a High Altitude Location in Central Himalayas
Our climate is strongly influenced by the manner in which solar radiation is absorbed and scattered in the Earth’s atmosphere. Atmospheric aerosols play an important role in modifying the radiation budget of the earth-atmosphere system. Aerosols have a direct impact on the atmosphere as they scatter and absorb solar and infrared radiations and indirectly affect the size distribution of cloud dr...
