Abstract: Sequential infrared satellite imagery is used to objectively compute surface currents in the Gulf Stream region using the maximum correlation (MCC) method. The infrared images, filtered for cloud cover, are used to find ...

Abstract: Satellite retrievals of surface evaporation and precipitation from the Hamburg Ocean Atmosphere Parameters and Fluxes from Satellite Data (HOAPS-3) dataset are used to document the distribution of evaporation, precipitation, ...

Abstract: An integrated approach is presented for determining from several different satellite datasets all of the components of the tropical sea surface fluxes of heat, freshwater, and momentum. The methodology for obtaining the ...

Abstract: High-resolution surface fluxes over the global ocean are needed to evaluate coupled atmosphere?ocean models and weather forecasting models, provide surface forcing for ocean models, understand the regional and temporal ...

Abstract: his study quantifies mean annual and monthly fluxes of Earth?s water cycle over continents and ocean basins during the first decade of the millennium. To the extent possible, the flux estimates are based on satellite ...

Abstract: ew objectively balanced observation-based reconstructions of global and continental energy budgets and their seasonal variability are presented that span the golden decade of Earth-observing satellites at the start of the ...
