Observations of the Infrared Outgoing Spectrum of the Earth from Space: The Effects of Temporal and Spatial Sampling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A recent comparison between data taken by two different satellite instruments, the Interferometric Monitor of Greenhouse Gases (IMG) that flew in 1997 and the Infrared Interferometer Spectrometer (IRIS) that flew in 1970, ...
Climate Variability and Trends in SSU Radiances: A Comparison of Model Predictions and Satellite Observations in the Middle Stratosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Several recent studies have highlighted the potential of utilizing statistical techniques to pattern match observations and model simulations in order to establish a causal relationship between anthropogenic activity and ...
Spatial Patterns of Climate Variability in Upper-Tropospheric Water Vapor Radiances from Satellite Data and Climate Model Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The use of multivariate fingerprints and spatial pattern correlation in the detection and attribution of climate change has concentrated on radiosonde temperature fields. However, the large body of radiance data from ...
Unfiltering of the Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) Data. Part I: Shortwave Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The method used to estimate the unfiltered shortwave broadband radiance from the filtered radiances measured by the Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) instrument is presented. This unfiltering method is used to ...
On the Detection of Robust Multidecadal Changes in Earth’s Outgoing Longwave Radiation Spectrum
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ifferences between Earth?s global mean all-sky outgoing longwave radiation spectrum as observed in 1970 [Interferometric Infrared Spectrometer (IRIS)], 1997 [Interferometric Monitor for Greenhouse Gases (IMG)], and 2012 ...
FORUM: unique far-infrared satellite observations to better understand how Earth radiates energy to space
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Far-infrared Outgoing Radiation Understanding and Monitoring mission will observe the Earth’s emitted outgoing radiation spectrum across the far-infrared with high spectral resolution and accuracy from space for the ...
Completing the Picture: The FORUM Mission: Unique Satellite Data to Fully Reveal How Earth Radiates Energy to Space
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
The Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports on a new satellite sensor, the Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) experiment. GERB is designed to make the first measurements of the Earth's radiation budget from geostationary orbit. Measurements ...
Achieving Climate Change Absolute Accuracy in Orbit
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: te Absolute Radiance and Refractivity Observatory (CLARREO) mission will provide a calibration laboratory in orbit for the purpose of accurately measuring and attributing climate change. CLARREO measurements establish new ...
