Spectral Longwave Emission in the Tropics: FTIR Measurement at the Sea Surface and Comparison with Fast Radiation Codes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Longwave emission by the tropical western Pacific atmosphere has been measured at the ocean surface by a Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroradiometer deployed aboard the research vessel John Vickers as part of the ...
An Examination of the Clear-Sky Solar Absorption over the Central Equatorial Pacific: Observations versus Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements of downward surface solar radiation (global radiation) and albedo taken during the Central Equatorial Pacific Experiment (CEPEX) are used to obtain baseline estimates for two quantities concerning the radiation ...
ACE-ASIA: Regional Climatic and Atmospheric Chemical Effects of Asian Dust and Pollution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although continental-scale plumes of Asian dust and pollution reduce the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface and perturb the chemistry of the atmosphere, our ability to quantify these effects has been ...
