RISThe Clear-Sky Greenhouse Effect Sensitivity to a Sea Surface Temperature Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The clear-sky greenhouse effect response to a sea surface temperature (SST or Ts) change is studied using outgoing clear-sky longwave radiation measurements from the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE). Considering ...
Diurnal Variations and Modulation by Easterly Waves of the Size Distribution of Convective Cloud Clusters over West Africa and the Atlantic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using Metecosat satellite data in the atmospheric infrared window, the authors study short time-scale fluctuations of the size distribution of tropical convective cloud clusters for July to September 1989. A cluster at a ...
Structural Characteristics of Deep Convective Systems over Tropical Africa and the Atlantic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The structural properties of convective cloud clusters of tropical Africa and the Atlantic Ocean are studied using six summers of Meteosat satellite data in the atmospheric infrared window. A cluster at a given brightness ...
The ScaRaB–Resurs Earth Radiation Budget Dataset and First Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Measurements made by the second flight model of the Scanner for Radiation Budget (ScaRaB) instrument have been processed and are now available for the scientific community. Although this set of data is relatively short and ...
