Concerning Causes of “Anomalous Gray Shades” in DMSP Visible Imagery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Visible, Very High Resolution (VHR) and Light Fine (LF) data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) frequently exhibit areas of light-toned gray shades termed ?anomalous gray shades? which appear most ...
Assessment of the Impact of Simulated Satellite Lidar Wind and Retrieved 183 GHz Water Vapor Observations on a Global Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of observing system simulation experiments (0SSEs) was conducted to assess the impacts on the Air Force Geophysics Laboratory (GL) global data assimilation system (GDAS) of a satellite Doppler wind lidar sounding ...
A Simulation Study of Satellite Emission Computed Tomography
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite emission computed tomography retrieves the temperature of the atmosphere from radiances observed at multiple viewing angles and frequencies. To the extent that it provides independent information, the use of ...
Analysis and Forecast Improvements from Simulated Satellite Water Vapor Profiles and Rainfall Using a Global Data Assimilation System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The potential improvements of analyses and forecasts from the use of satellite-observed rainfall and water vapor measurements from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Special Sensor Microwave (SSM) T-1 and T-2 ...
