Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple objective method for delineation of the ITCZ from daily 2.5 degree data on satellite measured outgoing longwave radiation and albedo is described. The method involves identification of grid points with a large ...
Systematic Bias in the NOAA Outgoing Longwave Radiation Dataset?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) fluxes derived from NOAA-SR (1974?78) are found to he consistently higher than those from NOAA-7 (1982 onward) over a large part of the tropical belt. Analysis of the variation of the ...
