Abstract: The Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) is the first multi-satellite system designed to measure the Earth's radiation budget. It will fly on a low-inclination NASA satellite and two Sun-synchronous NOAA satellites ...

Abstract: In standard treatments of the mass and energy budget of cloud droplets, radiant energy transfer is neglected on the grounds that the temperature difference between the droplet and its surroundings is small. This paper ...

Abstract: The Earth Observing System (EOS) will collect data from a large number of satellite-borne instruments, beginning later in this decade. To make data accessible to the scientific community, NASA will build an EOS Data and ...

Abstract: This study has applied computerized pattern analysis techniques to the location and classification of feature of several mature extratropical cyclones that were depicted in GOES satellite images. These features include the ...

Abstract: The Clouds and Earth Radiant Energy System (CERES) scanning radiometer was designed to provide high accuracy measurements of the radiances from the earth. Calibration testing of the instruments showed the presence of an ...

Abstract: Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) is an investigation to examine the role of cloud/radiation feedback in the Earth's climate system. The CERES broadband scanning radiometers are an improved version of ...

Abstract: Each Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES) instrument contains three scanning thermistor bolometer radiometric channels. These channels measure broadband radiances in the shortwave (0.3?5.0 ?m), total (0.3?>100 ...

Abstract: The Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) spacecraft sensors are designed to measure broadband earth-reflected solar shortwave (0.3?5 µm) and earth-emitted longwave (5? > 100 µm) radiances at the top of the ...
