RISA Comparison of Cloud and Rainfall Information from Instantaneous Visible and Infrared Scanner and Precipitation Radar Observations over a Frontal Zone in East Asia during June 1998
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The comparison between cloud information and rainfall is studied using infrared and radar data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission. Cloud information from the visible and infrared scanner was compared with rain ...
The Feasibility of Extracting Low-Level Wind by Tracing Low-Level Moisture Observed with GOES-7
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The feasibility of extracting low-level wind (mean within the layer 700 hPa to surface) by tracking low-level moisture patterns observed with GOES-7 is studied. It is found that low-level wind can be inferred by tracking ...
Radiation Energy Budget Studies Using Collocated AVHRR and ERBE Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Changes in the energy balance at the top of the atmosphere are specified as a function of atmospheric and surface properties using observations from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVURR) and the Earth Radiation ...
Did the Eruption of the Mt. Pinatubo Volcano Affect Cirrus Properties?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Some observations suggest that the volcanic aerosols produced by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption may have altered cirrus. The authors look for evidence that such modification of cirrus is extensive enough to be climatically ...
