Temporal Variations of Land Surface Microwave Emissivities over the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Southern Great Plains Site
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Land surface microwave emissivities are important geophysical parameters for atmospheric, hydrological, and biospheric studies. This study estimates land surface microwave emissivity using an atmospheric microwave radiative ...
Basic Diagnosis and Prediction of Persistent Contrail Occurrence Using High-Resolution Numerical Weather Analyses/Forecasts and Logistic Regression. Part I: Effects of Random Error
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Straightforward application of the Schmidt?Appleman contrail formation criteria to diagnose persistent contrail occurrence from numerical weather prediction data is hindered by significant bias errors in the upper-tropospheric ...
Basic Diagnosis and Prediction of Persistent Contrail Occurrence Using High-Resolution Numerical Weather Analyses/Forecasts and Logistic Regression. Part II: Evaluation of Sample Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A probabilistic forecast to accurately predict contrail formation over the conterminous United States (CONUS) is created by using meteorological data based on hourly meteorological analyses from the Advanced Regional ...
Simulation of the Earth' Monthly Average Regional Radiation Balance Derived from Satellite Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Computer simulations of satellite-derived Earth radiation parameters are examined to determine the source and size of errors arising from averaging parameters over 1 month on a 2.5°?2.5° longitude-latitude grid. November ...
Comparison of Longwave Diurnal Models Applied to Simulations of the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simulations of the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment with several satellite sampling schemes have been used to compare three different approaches to modeling longwave diurnal behavior observed over certain kinds of land ...
Diurnal Variability of Regional Cloud and Clear-Sky Radiative Parameters Derived from GOES Data. Part II: November 1978 Cloud Distributions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Regional (250 ? 250 km2) diurnal cloud variability is examined using mean hourly cloud amounts derived from November 1978 GOES-East visible and infrared data with a hybrid bispectral threshold technique. A wide variety of ...
Diurnal Variability of Regional Cloud and Clear-Sky Radiative Parameters Derived from GOES Data. Part I: Analysis Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A hybrid bispectral threshold method (HBTM) is developed for hourly regional cloud and radiative parameters from geostationary satellite visible and infrared radiance data. The quantities derived with the HBTM include ...
Diurnal Variability of Regional Cloud and Clear-Sky Radiative Parameters Derived from GOES Data. Part III: November 1978 Radiative Parameters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The diurnal variability of the radiation emitted and reflected from the earth-atmosphere is investigated at the regional scale using November 1978 GOES-East visible and infrared data and GOES-derived cloud information. ...
Anisotropy of Land Surface Skin Temperature Derived from Satellite Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The land skin temperature, an important feature for agricultural monitoring, convective processes, and the earth?s radiation budget, is monitored from limited-view satellite imagers. The angular dependence of this parameter ...
