Determination of the Cirrus Outflow Divergence as Seen by Satellite
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Certain methods are tested to estimate the divergence of the outflow anvil of tropical cloud clusters. These methods are based on the change of digitized brightness values given by a sequence of satellite pictures. From ...
A Combination of Microwave Observations from Satellites and an EOF Analysis to Retrieve Vertical Humidity Profiles over the Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A semistatistical retrieval technique is presented to derive humidity profiles over the oceans from passive microwave measurements. The procedure is based upon the vertical empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) of the ...
ISCCP Cloud Algorithm Intercomparison
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) will provide a uniform global climatology of satellite-measured radiances and derive an experimental climatology of cloud radiative properties from these ...
The Baltic Sea Experiment (BALTEX): A European Contribution to the Investigation of the Energy and Water Cycle over a Large Drainage Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Baltic Sea Experiment (BALTEX) is one of the five continental?scale experiments of the Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX). More than 50 research groups from 14 European countries are participating in this ...
