Tracking desert dust devils with in-situ pressure sensors and imaging
Author_Institution :
JHU Appl. Phys. Lab., Laurel, MD, USA
Abstract :
Desert dust devil phenomena on Earth and Mars are reviewed, and progress in studying them with novel unattended field sensors, and with timelapse imaging, is described. These new datasets present data analysis challenges which are familiar in other tracking/target identification applications.
