Comparison of Five Satellite-Derived Latent Heat Flux Products to Moored Buoy Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Five satellite products of latent heat flux at the sea surface were compared to bulk fluxes calculated with data from 75 moored buoys, on almost 36 successive months from 1998 to 2000. The five products compared are the ...
An Integrated Approach to Estimate Instantaneous Near-Surface Air Temperature and Sensible Heat Flux Fields during the SEMAPHORE Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new technique was developed to retrieve near-surface instantaneous air temperatures and turbulent sensible heat fluxes using satellite data during the Structure des Echanges Mer?Atmosphere, Proprietes des Heterogeneites ...
A Nonlinear Statistical Model of Turbulent Air–Sea Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Most of the bulk algorithms used to calculate turbulent air?sea fluxes of momentum and heat are iterative algorithms whose convergence is slow and not always achieved. To avoid these drawbacks that are critical when large ...
Evaluation of Latent Heat Flux Fields from Satellites and Models during SEMAPHORE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Latent heat fluxes were derived from satellite observations in the region of Structure des Echanges Mer?Atmosphère, Propriétés des Hétérogénéités Océaniques: Recherche Expérimentale (SEMAPHORE), which was conducted near ...
