An Intercomparison of Temperature and Moisture Fields Derived from TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder Data by Different Retrieval Techniques. Part I: Basic Statistics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Fields of temperature, thickness and precipitable water, derived from common sets of Tiros Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS) radiance data have been intercompared. These fields were produced by a variety of institutions ...
Improved Hurricane Track Forecasting from the Continuous Assimilation of High Quality Satellite Wind Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Despite recent improvements in the accuracy of hurricane track forecasts, mean position errors still remain unacceptably large. For example, recurvature is captured poorly by forecast models and can produce excessively ...
