| dc.description.abstract | The results of daily flights in January, 1955 in the vicinity of Tucson, Arizona tor the purpose of detecting natural freezing nuclei are presented. Samples were taken each day at 15,000 feet, 5,000 feet and at the surface. No systematic correlation was noted with the longNterm total rainfall record according to the Bowen meteoric dust hypothesis, However, the fact that average temperatures for given concentrations of nuclei were found to be within 2C 0 of temperatures for the same concentrations over Sydney, Australia is noted. Certain interesting observations on natural ice crystal clouds are also discussed. | |
