RISThe Annual Cycle of Satellite-derived Sea Surface Temperature in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The annual cycle of sea surface temperature (SST) in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean was estimated using four years (July 1984-July 1988) of NOAA Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer observations. High resolution ...
Trends in Atmospheric Transmission at Three Locations in the United States from 1940 to 1977
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The pyrheliometric measurements at three locations in the United States axe examined to determine if there are trends in atmospheric transmission. Although the radiation values at Madison are depressed in the 1940's because ...
Progressive Internal Erosion in a Gap-Graded Internally Unstable Soil: Mechanical and Geometrical Effects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the posterosion geomechanical behavior of internally unstable granular material due to removal of fines caused by erosive forces of water flow. Posterosion undrained behavior of a gap-graded internally ...
Permanent Deformation Response of Polymer-Treated Pavement Foundation Material under Transmitted Stress Pulses
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An understanding of the response of pavement materials under repeat loading is required for the mechanistic approach to pavement design. In this study, the response of granular subbase materials for a flexible pavement ...
Error Characteristics of the Atmospheric Correction Algorithms Used in Retrieval of Sea Surface Temperatures from Infrared Satellite Measurements: Global and Regional Aspects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A database of cotemporal, collocated satellite and in situ observations is used to examine the association between the brightness temperature differences measured by the thermal infrared channels (T45) of the Advanced Very ...
Influence of an Offshore Shift in the Gulf Stream on Waters of the South Carolina Continental Shelf
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A 4.3-month-long dataset from moorings on the continental shelf off South Carolina during 1986 showed unusual midrecord shifts in bottom pressure, temperature, stratification, and alongshelf currents. The Gulf Stream moved ...
Comparison between the Pathfinder Versions 5.0 and 4.1 Sea Surface Temperature Datasets: A Case Study for High Resolution
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two Pathfinder sea surface temperature (SST) datasets?version 5.0 (V50) and version 4.1 (V41)?were compared in two test areas: 1) the Gulf Stream (GS) between 35° and 43°N, 75° and 60°W and 2) the California coast (CC) ...
An Independent Assessment of Pathfinder AVHRR Sea Surface Temperature Accuracy Using the Marine Atmosphere Emitted Radiance Interferometer (MAERI)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The remotely sensed sea surface temperature (SST) estimated from the 4?km?resolution Pathfinder SST algorithm is compared to a SST locally measured by the Marine Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (MAERI) during ...
Processing, Compression and Transmission of Satellite IR Data for Near-Real-Time Use at Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for acquisition, processing and analysis of digital, satellite-derived SST fields on a research vessel at sea in near-real-time (within 10 h of the satellite pass) is discussed. Such imagery provides a general ...
