Measurements of dust deposition velocity in a wind-tunnel experiment [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014
In this study, we present the results of a wind-tunnel experiment on dust deposition. A new method is proposed to derive dust deposition velocity from PDA (particle dynamics analysis) particle-velocity and particle-size measurements.

Wind-Tunnel Experiments on Blowing Snow [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 1985
Blowing snow was produced artificially in a cold wind-tunnel, and various measurements were conducted including particle diameters, concentrations, saltation lengths heat transport and electric charge. The mean diameter of blowing snow particles decreased only slightly with increasing height; in the saltation layer, standard deviation was large and ...
