A model of Wilson Cloud formation following a low-altitude nuclear detonation is developed. It is shown that for detonation yields between 0.001 kt and 100 kt, simple scaling laws characterize the evolution and physical properties of the Wilson Cloud. ...

Many ocean color processing algorithms often need to have an additional module to mask out the non-oceanic objects, such as clouds or land. We have constructed a program that produces land, cirrus, low-altitude cloud, and bad-pixel masks. ... Descriptors : *OCEANS, ALGORITHMS, USER MANUALS, COLORS, LOW ALTITUDE,

During the January 1997 coronal mass ejection/magnetic cloud event, ... Effects of the ring current and the magnetopause current can be identified in the magnetic field data in the low-altitude magnetosphere. During the magnetic storm of January 10, the ring current exhibits strong dawn-dusk asymmetry.
