What is the diameter of the devil. . . . Here is a very rough estimate of the diameter of the dust devil using a scaled image. The last three subimages where the dust devil begins to dissipate were not taken into account. 1 pixel corresponds to 0.76 m in nature. Diameter of the brightes part where it touches the ground: 25 to 40 m Diameter of the shadow: 60 to 70 m (local mean solar time was 11:09) It was a nice coincidence that the dust devil entered the field of view exactly at the moment when the image series started. |
