    Notes: Abstract Thirty-three large felids belonging to six different species were exposed to catnip and catnip extract. The species-characteristic response to catnip and the sensitivity of the response to various concentrations of catnip were examined. Putative relationships between catnip sensitivity, species range, age, estrous cycle, and behavioral complexity are discussed. The behavioral response to catnip shown by the domestic cat is seen in several different large felids. Lions and jaguars were extremely sensitive to catnip compared to tigers, cougars, and bobcats, who gave little or no response. Both males and females of the same species tested alike. Reproductive-age adults were more sensitive than either aged or immature animals. It was quantitatively demonstrated that catnip responsiveness is not limited to the domestic cat, that it is not limited to the female, and that it varies dramatically between species and age of felids.

    Description: Method using matrix approach to determine best linear estimate of total flux consistent with condition of minimum variance proves useful in meteorological studies. It is useful for researchers studying options in scanner design such as scan pattern, scan rate, and radiometer field-of-view.

    Description: A parameter estimation technique was used to analyze the August 1975 Nimbus 6 Earth radiation budget data to demonstrate the concept of deconvolution. The longwave radiation field at the top of the atmosphere is defined from satellite data by a fifth degree and fifth order spherical harmonic representation. The variations of the major features of the radiation field are defined by analyzing the data separately for each two-day duty cycle. A table of coefficient values for each spherical harmonic representation is given along with global mean, gradients, degree variances, and contour plots. In addition, the entire data set is analyzed to define the monthly average radiation field.

    Description: Closed-form solutions are presented for the diffusion of an inert pollutant in a nonuniform flow; matrix analysis is employed to facilitate the solutions. In particular, cases involving an instantaneous point release, a constant point source, and an instantaneous line release are treated. Computations with and without the effects of velocity nonuniformities are given for the dispersal of the ground cloud resulting from the launch of a large rocket (the cloud considered as an instantaneous point source) and the dispersal of an aircraft exhaust (the exhaust considered as an instantaneous line release). In both cases the velocity nonuniformities have important effects on the computations.

    Description: Error sources that might affect the earth radiation budget (ERBSI) scanner radiometer are discussed. Effects of sensor time response, spatial averaging by the field of view, onboard processing, and level III averaging are examined, coverage of grid regions is considered, and an analysis procedure for a scanning radiometer is derived. ERBSI consists of a scanning radiometer, sensors, and a solar radiometer, and it is suggested that ERBSI be included in the instrument complement of NOAA operational spacecraft.

    Description: The paper presents a statistical method for extracting regional information on the radiative heat flux at the top of the atmosphere from a satellite-borne scanning radiometer. The radiative heat flux distribution is denoted by a double Fourier series with coefficients to be determined from measurements. The method determines, in the sense of minimum variance, the best linear estimator of the total flux over a region. The heat flux distribution is represented by a truncated series which is unbiased.

    Description: The objective of the scanning radiometer of the Earth Radiation Budget Satellite System is to measure the longwave and reflected shortwave radiation from the earth on a gridwork of approximately 250 km square regions in order to obtain one-month averages of flux with global coverage to an accuracy of 14 W/sq m. A number of considerations in the choice of some of the design parameters of the scanner are discussed. The error sources which must be considered in the design of a scanning radiometer designed to measure regional radiation budget are examined. An analysis of the system performance through spatial averaging is presented. The analysis provides insight into the effects of field of view, time response, onboard processing and spatial averaging.
