RISOn the Surface Temperature Sensitivity of the Reflected Shortwave, Outgoing Longwave, and Net Incident Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he global-mean top-of-atmosphere incident solar radiation (ISR) minus the outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and the reflected shortwave radiation (RSW) is the net incident radiation (NET). This study analyzes the global-mean ...
Patterns of CO2 Variability from Global Satellite Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors present an analysis of the global midtropospheric CO2 retrieved for all-sky (clear and cloudy) conditions from measurements by the Atmospheric Infrared Radiation Sounder on board the Aqua satellite in 2003?09. ...
Interhemispheric Variability of Earth’s Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he variability of interhemispheric symmetry of Earth?s energy serves as an independent indicator of climate change. The analysis of updated data obtained from satellite measurements at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) shows ...
Relative Humidity in the Troposphere with AIRS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ew global satellite data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) are applied to study the tropospheric relative humidity (RH) distribution and its influence on outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) for January and July ...
AIRS: Improving Weather Forecasting and Providing New Data on Greenhouse Gases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and its two companion microwave sounders, AMSU and HSB were launched into polar orbit onboard the NASA Aqua Satellite in May 2002. NASA required the sounding system to provide ...
