    Description: The history of minimum temperatures at 50 and 70 mb is examined from NMC, UK Met O and ECMWF analyses. MSU channel 24 data are similarly inspected. South Pole sonde data are used to calculate saturation humidity mixing ratio as a function of altitude and time throughout 1987. Saturation with respect to ice could be maintained for water mixing ratios of 3.5 ppmv for a period of about 80 days from mid-June to mid-September. Dehydration to mixing ratios of 1 ppmv or less was possible sporadically. Data from the ER-2 flights between 53 S and 72 S are used in conjunction with particle size measurements and air parcel trajectories to demonstrate the dehydration occurring over Antarctica. Water mixing ratios at the latitude of Punta Arens (53 S), in conjunction with tracer measurements and trajectory analysis, show that at potential temperatures from about 325 to 400 K, the dryness (less than 3 ppmv) had its origin over Antarctica rather than in the tropics. Water mixing ratios within the Antarctic vortex varied from 1.5 to 3.8 ppmv, with a strong isentropic gradient being evident in the region of high potential vorticity gradients.

    Description: A description of the ER-2 lidar data characteristics and available products, plus flight times and locations is presented for the FIRE cirrus experiment of October 13 through November 2, 1986. The CALS airborne lidar was flown for this experiment on the NASA ER-2 high altitude aircraft. The primary objectives of the CALS observations were to intensively measure cirrus cloud top height and structure for basic cirrus studies and for validation of satellite cloud retrievals.

    Notes: The polymerization of butadiene by lithium-based initiators in aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents in the presence of dipiperidinoethane gives a highly 1,2 structure. This system was studied to determine the factors that govern the structure. The effect of this complexing agent on the kinetics of propagation, the microstructure of the polymer, and the ultraviolet spectrum of the active chain end was measured. The results suggest that more than one solvated species form, all giving highly 1,2 polymer structures, but that a solvate containing one chain end with one dipiperidinoethane molecule is the principal reacting species which gives close to 100% 1,2 structure. This reacting center has a high proportion of trans-structure in the allyllic ion, únlike most complexed active chain ends, which are often highly cis. It is this transstructure in the ion that is thought to be responsible for the polymer structure.

    Notes: The self-diffusion coefficient D of paraffin and polyethylene melts - covering the range between N = 19 and 103 where N is the number of monomeric units - was measured by the pulsed-magnetic-field-gradient NMR method for diffusion times between 3 ms and 1 s. For the paraffins, D is proportional to N-2 though the molecular weights are smaller than the critical molecular weight for entanglement. In polyethylene, melts a strong dependence of the diffusion coefficient on the diffusion time is observed, whereas no such dependence is found in paraffin melts. A mathematical formalism for describing spin-echo attenuation in terms of a velocity autocorrelation function is shown to yield qualitative agreement with the experimental results.

    Notes: Far-infrared spectra of a series of un-neutralized and neutralized lightly sulfonated polystyrenes with varying sulfonation levels have been investigated to seek spectroscopic evidence for microphase separation known to control the physical properties of these polymers. Broad, strong absorbance bands, not found in the spectrum of unmodified polystyrene, are observed in the spectra of the sulfonated analogs. The effects on the far-infrared spectra both of sulfonation level and of the mass and charge of the neutralizing cation are discussed in terms of cation motion and the formation of ion-rich domains.

    Notes: Thin films of cured MY720/DDS epoxy resins were treated with blocking reagents for hydroxyl, amine, and epoxide functional groups. Infrared spectroscopy (IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to monitor the progress of the reaction. Treated films were soaked in distilled water at 30°C for 720 h, and the corresponding moisture absorption determined gravimetrically. Samples treated with N-methyl-N-t-butyldimethylsilyl trifluroacetamide (MTBSTFA) containing 1% t-butyldimethylchlorosilane (TBDMCS) in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) at 30°C showed a maximum reduction in the IR peak at 3400 cm-1 (OH and NH) of 39% and a 100% reduction in the epoxide peak at 904 cm, -1. The moisture absorption was 1.9%, a reduction of 58% compared to the untreated films (ca. 4.5%). The reactions show dependencies on time and temperature and are diffusion controlled. Samples treated with trimethylsilyl isocyanate (TMSI) in DMSO a 70°C showed 72% reduction in the 3400 cm-1 IR peak; DSC thermograms do not show an exothermic energy, suggesting that all epoxide groups reacted. These reactions are primarily dependent on time and temperature. The moisture absorption of TMSI treated samples was 1.0% (75% reduction). Samples were also treated with m-trifluoromethyl phenyliscyanate (MTFPI). The reduction in the IR peak at 3400 cm-1 was 9%, but the moisture absorption was 2.4% - a reduction of 47%.

    Description: The importance of mesoscale moisture information in the forecasting of weather events is discussed. A test is being prepared with the March 6, 1982 Vertical Atmospheric Sounder/Atmospheric Variability Experiment (VAS/AVE) case study to be run on the sub-synoptic scale model (SSM). Model intracomparison of three carefully designed simulations should isolate the role of mesoscale information in the initial conditions for both mositure and vertical motion. Three simulations will be made for the period 1200Z 6 March to 0000Z 7 March starting with the regular synoptic time data of 1200Z. The distinction between the three cases arises from data manipulation at 1800Z midway through the forecast period: (1) Control Case: no alterations at 1800Z. (2) Moisture Information Suppression: at 1800Z the model simulation field for water vapor, which by this time contains considerable mesoscale structure, is replaced by a smoothed version from which the mesoscale structure has been eliminated. No other variables are structure altered. (3) Vertical Motion Information Suppression: at 1800Z the model is subjected to a dead start procedure which primarily imposes a nondivergent constraint of the horizontal motion field field suppressing vertical motion. The main effect is to eliminate the mesoscale component. Comparison of results for the 1800Z to 0000Z time period will give the information desired.

    Description: During FY-85, Researchers conducted a field program and analyzed data. The field program incorporated coordinated measurements made with a NASA U2. Results include the following: (1) ground truth measurements of lightning for comparison with those obtained by the U2; (2) analysis of dual-Doppler radar and dual-VHF lightning mapping data from a supercell storm; (3) analysis of synoptic conditions during three simultaneous storm systems on 13 May 1983 when unusually large numbers of positive cloud-to-ground (+CG) flashes occurred; (4) analysis of extremely low frequency (ELF) wave forms; and (5) an assessment of a cloud -ground strike location system using a combination of mobile laboratory and fixed-base TV video data.

    Description: Lidar and passive radiance sensing data on cirrus clouds gathered in instrumented high altitude aircraft flights are analyzed, with emphasis on cirrus emittance characteristics. The data were collected with a U-2 aircraft flying at about 19 km altitude. Lidar data defined the vertical structure of the cloud which, when combined with independent atmospheric temperature data, permitted radiance to be derived from thermal radiance data. Sample return lidar images are provided of cirrus and cirrostratus clouds, along with the calculated emittance data.
