RapidScat Diurnal Cycles Over Land

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2016
RapidScat, which is a Ku-band scatterometer mounted on the International Space Station, observes the Earth's surface in a non-sun-synchronous orbit allowing for different local time-of-day (LTOD) observations as the orbit progresses. The unique orbit and different LTOD observations provide surface observations that are composited to describe the ...

Renal diurnal cycle in hydropenic man

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1962
Ten hydropenic male subjects, 29–60 yr of age and without evidence of cardiovascular-renal disease, were examined with respect to renal function during the period 8:30 am-10:30 am. No infusions were given and because of the oliguric state of the subjects, the utmost care was used in emptying the bladder by catheter and air washout.

Diurnal Cycles and Cannibalism in Planaria

Science, 1960
Dugesia tigrina attacks Cura foremani under certain circumstances. The length of fast prior to the attack and diurnal rhythms are involved in evoking such behavior.

Diurnal potassium excretory cycles in the rat

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 1986
Diurnal potassium cycles (DPC) were measured in unanesthetized undisturbed rats fed a liquid diet and maintained in a 12-h light-dark environment. A fourfold step increase in diet potassium content increased DPC amplitude without altering phase. After presentation of the high-potassium diet, the initial adaptive increase in excretion occurred within 1.

Diurnal precipitation cycle in Austria

Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 2010
A back-trajectory clustering method was developed to identify synoptic patterns associated with heavy precipitation in Austria. Extending this work from daily precipitation sums to accumulation intervals from 12 to 48 hours, an unexpected problem was encountered related to the observation schedule of data. To modify available data to our specific needs,

Diurnal cycle of tropospheric OH

Nature, 1986
The hydroxyl free radical, OH, is sunlight's prime agent in maintaining the trace-gas composition of the Earth's troposphere, and at the same time serves as the catalyst responsible for many of the symptoms of urban and regional air pollution. We have used low-pressure fluorescence to measure the ambient concentration of this radical during two ...

The diurnal cycle of tropical convection

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 1993
The diurnal cycle of tropical convection is investigated with global cloud imagery constructed from 11μm radiance measurements taken aboard six satellites. Four harmonics of the diurnal cycle are resolved in the cloud imagery with about 50 km horizontal resolution.

A Diurnal Cycle for Holotrich Protozoa of the Rumen

Nature, 1961
IN the last decade the study of the ciliate protozoa of the rumen has emphasized the investigation of individual species, rather than the ciliate population as a whole.

Modeling the atmospheric diurnal cycle

2020
Weather and climate influence life in many ways; varying climatic conditions can be associated with varying human cultures and on a day-to-day basis, the weather influences our plans and mood. As such, a proper prediction of the weather is of great importance. Ultimately, the weather is fueled by solar irradiation, which changes sharply over the course

The diurnal cycle and locomotion in earthworms

Zeitschrift f�r Vergleichende Physiologie, 1965
1. The time necessary for crawling 10 cm up an incline of 45° was found for earthworms, Lumbricus terrestris L., during test periods starting at 700, 1200 and 1900. 2. For 446 trials run in the morning, the average time was 17.19 seconds.
