RISInterpretation of AIRS Data in Thin Cirrus Atmospheres Based on a Fast Radiative Transfer Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A thin cirrus cloud thermal infrared radiative transfer model has been developed for application to cloudy satellite data assimilation. This radiation model was constructed by combining the Optical Path Transmittance ...
Radiance Comparisons of MODIS and AIRS Using Spatial Response Information
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The combination of multiple satellite instruments on a pixel-by-pixel basis is a difficult task, even for instruments collocated in space and time, such as the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and ...
Horizontal and Vertical Scaling of Cloud Geometry Inferred from CloudSat Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA method is described to characterize the scale dependence of cloud chord length using cloud-type classification reported with the 94-GHz CloudSat radar. The cloud length along the CloudSat track is quantified using ...
Temperature and Water Vapor Variance Scaling in Global Models: Comparisons to Satellite and Aircraft Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of the scale dependence of height-resolved temperature T and water vapor q variability are valuable for improved subgrid-scale climate model parameterizations and model evaluation. Variance spectral benchmarks ...
