RISSensitivity of Atmospheric Motion Vectors Height Assignment Methods to Semitransparent Cloud Properties Using Simulated Meteosat-8 Radiances
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents the sensitivity to various atmospheric parameters of two height assignment methods that aim to retrieve the cloud-top height of semitransparent clouds. The use of simulated Meteosat-8 radiances has the ...
Sensitivity of Thermal Infrared Radiation at the Top of the Atmosphere and the Surface to Ice Cloud Microphysics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports on the sensitivity of the brightness temperatures associated with radiances at the surface and the top of the atmosphere, simulated for the Imaging Infrared Radiometer (IIR) 8.7-, 10.6-, and 12-?m channels ...
A High-Accuracy Multiwavelength Radiometer for In Situ Measurements in the Thermal Infrared. Part II: Behavior in Field Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performances of the new conveyable low-noise infrared radiometer for measurements of atmosphere and ground surface targets, or CLIMAT, are presented for in situ measurements. For this, quantitative analyses were carried ...
