Abstract A new utility for the use of whole-sky photographs has been developed through an effort to discern the structural pattern of correlations of cloud cover within an observer's sky dome. The photographs were taken from the National Weather Service observing site at Columbia, Missouri, and were originally assembled for the purpose of estimating probabilities of cloud-free lines of sight from the earth through the atmosphere. The procedure for determining the spatial correlation structure of sky cover within the sky dome starts with the defining and tabulating of a dichotomous sky-cover condition over small sectors of the sky dome, and then calculating the correlation associated with the tabulated sky conditions in each sector. This note shows that correlation of sky-cover conditions over a sky dome are very high, and that they are less degrading in the winter than in the summer. The results of this study can be applied to the estimation of cloud-free lines of sight to multiple satellites.

AbstractThe Three Dimensional Atom Probe produces a real space map of the elemental identities and positions of atoms field-evaporated from a sharply pointed specimen. The analyzed volume is on the order of 20 nm × 20 nm × 100 nm. This is large enough to enclose microstructural features such as grain- or heterophase boundaries. Correlation of the measured atomic positions with such features results in an atom-by-atom description of the chemical environment of these crystallographic defects. We describe here a method for identifying these interfaces and profiling the composition in the vicinity of the interfaces without any assumptions about the interface geometry. This approach is applied to quantitative determination of interfacial segregation of Ag at a MgO/Cu(Ag) heterophase interface. We discuss the implications of our technique with respect to classical treatments of segregation at interfaces.
