Upper-Tropospheric Humidity from MLS and ECMWF Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper compares upper-tropospheric humidity from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite with European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) data. MLS measurements are ...
Upper-Tropospheric Water Vapor from UARS MLS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Initial results of upper-tropospheric water vapor obtained from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) are presented. MLS is less affected by clouds than infrared or visible ...
Lagrangian Transport Calculations Using UARS Data. Part I. Passive Tracers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The transport of passive tracers observed by the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite is simulated using computed three-dimensional trajectories of ≈ 100 000 air parcels initialized on a stratosphere grid, with horizontal ...
Three-Dimensional Evolution of Water Vapor Distributions in the Northern Hemisphere Stratosphere as Observed by the MLS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The three-dimensional evolution of stratospheric water vapor distributions observed by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) during the period October 1991?July 1992 is documented. The transport features inferred from the MLS ...
The UARS and EOS Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) experiments obtain measurements of atmospheric composition, temperature, and pressure by observations of millimeter- and submillimeter-wavelength thermal emission as the instrument field ...
