Zelinka.Mixed-Phase Clouds: Observations and Modeling presents advanced research topics on mixed-phase clouds. As the societal impacts of extreme weather and its forecasting grow, there is a continuous need to refine atmospheric observations, techniques and numerical models. Understanding the role of clouds in the atmosphere is increasingly vital for current applications, such as prediction and prevention of aircraft icing, weather modification, and the assessment of the effects of cloud phase partition in climate models. This book provides the essential information needed to address these problems with a focus on current observations, simulations and applications.Cloud physicsCloud physics.551.576Andronache ConstantinMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910583382903321Mixed-phase clouds1909489UNINA03381nam 22005655 450 991078083000332120230721024946.01-280-49243-097866135876640-8135-4833-010.36019/9780813548333(CKB)2520000000007912(EBL)871481(OCoLC)593295661(SSID)ssj0000336890(PQKBManifestationID)11304050(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000336890(PQKBWorkID)10289439(PQKB)10270887(DE-B1597)530077(DE-B1597)9780813548333(MiAaPQ)EBC871481(EXLCZ)99252000000000791220191221d2009 fg engur|||||||||||txtccrDriven to Darkness Jewish Emigre Directors and the Rise of Film Noir /Vincent BrookNew Brunswick, NJ : Rutgers University Press, [2009]©20091 online resource (299 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-8135-4629-X Frontmatter -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- 1.

With the rise of Hitler, filmmakers of conscience in Germany and other countries, particularly those of Jewish origin, found it difficult to survive and fledùfor their work and their livesùto the United States. Some had trouble adapting to Hollywood, but many were celebrated for their cinematic contributions, especially to the dark shadows of film noir. Driven to Darkness explores the influence of Jewish TmigrT directors and the development of this genre. While filmmakers such as Fritz Lang, Billy Wilder, Otto Preminger, and Edward G. Ulmer have been acknowledged as crucial to the noir canon, the impact of their Jewishness on their work has remained largely unexamined until now. Through lively and original analyses of key films, Vincent Brook penetrates the darkness, shedding new light on this popular film form and the artists who helped create it.Film noirHistory and criticismUnited StatesJewish motion picture producers and directorsUnited StatesFilm noirHistory and criticismJewish motion picture producers and directors791.43/6556791.436556Brook Vincent, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.1152844DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910780830003321Driven to Darkness2727584UNINA
