Relation between METEOSAT Water Vapor Radiance Fields and Large Scale Tropical Circulation Features
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Mean monthly images from the water vapor channel of METEOSAT characteristically contain large-scale spatial structures, especially in tropical regions. The aim of this paper is to establish connections between these ...
A Study of the Free Tropospheric Humidity Interannual Variability Using Meteosat Data and an Advection–Condensation Transport Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Water vapor in the midtroposphere is an important element for the earth radiation budget. Despite its importance, the relative humidity in the free troposphere is not very well documented, mainly because of the difficulties ...
Characterization of Some Elements of the Sahelian Climate and Their Interannual Variations for July 1983, 1984 and 1985 from the Analysis of METEOSAT ISCCP Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: METEOSAT infrared and water vapor radiance data from the ISCCP dataset are used to describe climatic characteristics for the months of July 1983, 1984 and 1985, corresponding to very different rainy seasons in Sahelian ...
