TURAC—A New Instrument Package for Radiation Budget Measurements and Cloud Detection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Atmospheric radiation flux measurements and the resulting surface radiation budget are important quantities for greenhouse effect and climate change investigations. Accurate net shortwave and longwave fluxes, in conjunction ...
Year-Round Observation of Longwave Radiative Flux Divergence in Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Longwave radiative flux divergence within the lowest 50 m of the atmospheric boundary layer was observed during the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Greenland Summit experiment. The dataset collected at 72°35?N, ...
Solar and Thermal Radiation Errors on Upper-Air Radiosonde Temperature Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: tmospheric temperature and humidity profiles are important for weather prediction, but climate change has increased the interest in upper-air observations asking for very high-quality reference measurements. This paper ...
Reference Upper-Air Observations for Climate: From Concept to Reality
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he three main objectives of the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Reference Upper-Air Network (GRUAN) are to provide long-term high-quality climate records of vertical profiles of selected essential climate variables ...
