NASA Technical Memorandum, 4145. Meteorological atlas of the Northern Hemisphere lower stratosphere for January and February 1989 during the Airborne Arctic Stratospheric Expedition
Northern Hemisphere meteorological data for the months of January and February 1989 in the lower stratosphere are shown. National Meteorological Center (NMC) data, and Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data are used to display polar stereographic projections of 100-mb temperatures, 50-mb temperatures, 50-mb geopotential heights, total ozone, and Ertel's potential vorticity (Epv) on both 400 K and 460 K isentropic surfaces. In addition, latitude/height cross sections at 10 E of balanced wind isotachs, wind vectors, potential temperature, and temperature are also shown. Horizontal traces o ...

In addition, latitude/height cross sections at 10 E of balanced wind isotachs, wind vectors, potential temperature, and temperature are also shown. Horizontal traces of NASA ER-2 and DC-8 flight tracks are also included. Vertical profiles of NMC temperatures following flight paths of both aircraft are shown. In addition, vertical profiles of wind speed are contoured following the ER-2 for estimating the lateral penetration into the polar vortex, while vertical profiles of Ertel's potential vorticity are included for estimating the vertical penetration of the DC-8 into the stratosphere.

NASA Technical Memorandum, 4049. Meteorological atlas of the Southern Hemisphere lower stratosphere for August and September 1987 : analyses Based on the United Kingdom Meteorological Office Global Model
Southern Hemisphere meteorological data for the months of August and September 1987 in the lower stratosphere are shown. National Meteorological Center (NMC) data, Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data, and Goddard Laboratory for Atmospheres (GLA) data are used to display polar stereographic projections of 200 to 100 mb vertical mean temperatures, 100 mb zonal mean geopotential height perturbations, total ozone, Ertel's potential vorticity (Epv), and 50 to 30 mb vertical mean temperatures. In addition, latitude height cross sections at 65 W of potential temperature, Epv, geostrophic iso ...

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 26. Methods of measurement and estimation of discharges at hydraulic structures
A review of methods for the measurement and estimation of discharges at hydraulic structures and pressure conduits with the aim of using such facilities, where they already exist, as an alternative to the construction of discharge measurement stations. Focus is on methods of flow estimation at structures commonly installed in reservoirs, dams and canals as well as standard methods for the measurement of open-channel and pipe flow. Mention is also made of the use of pumping stations and navigation locks.

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 24. Level and discharge measurements under difficult conditions
The report, approved by Commission for Hydrology at its seventh session in 1984, constitutes valuable guidance for hydrologists on measuring river flow under difficult conditions and supplements the Guide to hydrological practices (WMO-No. 168) and the Manual on stream gauging (WMO-No. 519).

Operational hydrology report (OHR), 22. Casebook on operational assessement of areal evaporation
The loss of fresh water through evaporation and evapotranspiration directly affects the availability of water resources and their development and management for human requirements. In view of the difficulties inherent in measuring areal evaporation with acceptable accuracy, it was decided to collect case studies of various methods of approach to provide practical guidance. Fifteen case studies were selected and are presented here.
