Modified discrete ordinates solution of radiative transfer in two-dimensional rectangular enclosures

Mohan Ammanath Ramankutty, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1997 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified discrete ordinates solution is developed for radiative transfer in a two-dimensional rectangular enclosure which contains an absorbing, emitting and isotropically scattering medium, and the intensity is broken into direct and diffuse components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drying and pyrolysis of wood particles: experiments and simulation

Bernhard Peters, +1 more
- 01 Dec 2003 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a flexible and stable numerical method to predict the thermal decomposition of large wood particles due to drying and pyrolysis, which can deal with particles of different sizes, shapes and properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rainfall, total water, ice water, and water vapor over sea from polarized microwave simulations and Special Sensor Microwave/Imager data

Peter Bauer, +1 more
- 20 Nov 1993 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a radiative-transport model was developed to study the emitted radiation from variable cloud and rain systems at the frequencies of the special sensor microwave imager (SSM/I).
Journal ArticleDOI

The theory of transmission spectra revisited: a semi-analytical method for interpreting WFC3 data and an unresolved challenge

Kevin Heng, +1 more
- 21 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a degeneracy between the uncertainty in the transit radius, the assumed value of the reference pressure (typically set to 10 bar) and the inferred value of water abundance when interpreting a WFC3 transmission spectrum was identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

The martian atmosphere: Mariner 9 television experiment progress report

Conway B. Leovy, +6 more
- 01 Oct 1972 - 
TL;DR: The surface of the planet was heavily obscured by a global dust storm during the first month in orbit, leaving a residual optical depth of about 0.1 as discussed by the authors, which suggests that the mean radius of the particles responsible for the obscuration was at least 10 microns.
