Atmospheric Transmission and Particle Size Measurements, Proceedings of Workshop: 23-25 October 1979, Dayton Ohio
Abstract
A highly accurate description of the atmosphere in terms of its transmission and aerosol size distribution is needed to quantify the performance of various DOD reconnaissance and weapons targeting systems. Recent DOD measurement programs have produced inconsistent data sets. Doubt has been cast upon the accuracies and sensitiviites of current meteorological instruments which provide transmission and particle size data. The purpose of the Atmospheric Transmission and Particle Size Measurements workshop was to provide a forum for information exchange between people who have been involved in the measurements. A definition of the state of the art of present equipment and technique was obtained. An overall summary, workshop session summaries, and abstracts of presentations are included. (Author)
