RISInformation Content of AVHRR Channels 4 and 5 with Respect to the Effective Radius of Cirrus Cloud Particles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper investigates the important difference in the relationship between brightness temperatures between the 11-?m and the 12-?n AVHRR data and the microphysical properties of the semitransparent cirrus clouds. In the ...
Observations of Saharan Aerosols: Results of ECLATS Field Experiment. Part II: Broadband Radiative Characteristics of the Aerosols and Vertical Radiative Flux Divergence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The results presented in this paper are a part of those obtained during the ECLATS experiment The broadband radiative characteristics of the Sahelian aerosol layer and the vertical radiative flux divergence within the dust ...
A Comparison of Measured and Modeled Broadband Fluxes from Aircraft Data during the ICE '89 Field Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the 1989 intensive field campaign of the International Cirrus Experiment (ICE) over the North Sea, broadband radiative fluxes were measured in, above, and below cirrus cloud by a number of European meteorological ...
Large-Scale Analysis of Cirrus Clouds from AVHRR Data: Assessment of Both a Microphysical Index and the Cloud-Top Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An algorithm that allows an automatic analysis of cirrus properties from Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) observations is presented. Further investigations of the information content and physical meaning ...
