1Investigating Cirrus cloud behavior using A-train and geostationary satellite dataInvestigating Cirrus cloud behavior using A-train and geostationary satellite dataBerry, ElizabethCirrus clouds; Dynamics; Behavior; Geostationary satellite data; CloudSat; CALIPSO; A-Train satellitesKnowledge of how the large-scale dynamics are coupled with microphysical properties is necessary for parameterizing cirrus in climate models. In this study, the synergy of the CloudSat and CALIPSO instruments is exploited for identifying cirrus. Mesoscale-size cirrus events are defined using a comb...2011-05
2Use of a mechanical model to show the benefits of modern anatomical features of homo sapiens for head stabilization during runningUse of a mechanical model to show the benefits of modern anatomical features of homo sapiens for head stabilization during runningAlston, Joseph D.Analysis; Anatomy; Dynamics; Evolution; Running; Shoulder; Head stabilizationStabilization of the head is critical for running. Homo sapiens possess several anatomical features that are useful for head stabilization. In order to test the functional value of some of these features, namely the location of the center of mass and the muscular connection between the skull and sho...2011-05
