The Prevalence of Omission - About the function and frequency of particle ellipsis in Japanese
Olsson, Robin (2022-03-10)The aim of this thesis is to investigate current perceptions of what is commonly referred to as particle omission, and in order to compare these perceptions to those of native speakers of Japanese, an online survey consisting ... -
Clustering and caustics in one-dimensional models of turbulent aerosols
Meibohm, Jan (Göteborgs universitet, 2018)Heavy particles suspended in turbulent fluid flows, so-called turbulent aerosols, are common in Nature and in technological applications. A prominent example is rain droplets in turbulent clouds. Due to their inertia, ... -
Lidar Studies of Tropospheric Aerosols and Clouds
Olofson, Frans (2008-09-22)An improved description of aerosol and cloud processes is a prerequisite for successful prediction of future climate change. The climate on Earth is controlled by the radiation budget, i.e. the relation between the radiation ...
