Mp731: New England Killing Frost Records By Zone, William R. Baron, David C. Smith Nov 1996

Mp731: New England Killing Frost Records By Zone, William R. Baron, David C. Smith

Miscellaneous Publications

This publication provides a deeper look at the killing frost data that is analyzed and summarized in Maine Agricultural and Forest Experiment Station Bulletin 846. The presentation in Bulletin 846 is designed to help planners and analysts. Individual readers, historians, botanists, agronomists, ecologists, and others may find a deeper look at the materials useful. Miscellaneous Publication 731 provides those data by climate zone on a yearly basis.


Measuring The Momentum Of Throughfall Drops And Raindrops, Paul Kimble Aug 1996

Measuring The Momentum Of Throughfall Drops And Raindrops, Paul Kimble

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The methods previously used to determine the momentum and kinetic energy of throughfall drops in the field do not account for the drop's shape at impact or for the variations of the drop's velocity caused by chaotic air currents. The drop's shape at impact is critical because it influences the drop's measurable momentum, kinetic energy, impact force, and the amount of soil that can be displaced by the falling water drop. Since the momentum and kinetic energy of raindrops and throughfall drops are used as indices of soil particle displacement the most accurate momentum and kinetic energydata would be required …
