RISParameterization of the Cool Skin of the Ocean and of the Air-Ocean Gas Transfer on the Basis of Modeling Surface Renewal
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Heat and gas transport in molecular sublayers at the air-sea interface is governed by similar laws. A model of renewal type based on the physics of molecular sublayers allows the derivation of a parameterization of the ...
Evaluation of Satellite-Derived Latent Heat Fluxes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method of determining ocean?atmosphere latent heat flux using the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) and the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) is presented and evaluated. While sea surface temperatures ...
Infrared Continental Surface Emissivity Spectra and Skin Temperature Retrieved from IASI Observations over the Tropics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: and surface temperature and emissivity spectra are essential variables for improving models of the earth surface?atmosphere interaction or retrievals of atmospheric variables such as thermodynamic profiles, chemical ...
The Behavior of the Bulk – Skin Sea Surface Temperature Difference under Varying Wind Speed and Heat Flux
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The observed and predicted response of the bulk ? skin sea surface temperature difference (δT) to changes in the wind speed and net heat flux is analyzed. Observations of δT from the northern Atlantic and tropical Pacific ...
Impact Assessment of Simulated Doppler Wind Lidars with a Multivariate Variational Assimilation in the Tropics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper deals with the dynamical aspect of variational data assimilation in the tropics and the role of the background-error covariances in the observing system simulation experiments for the tropics. The study uses a ...
An Introduction to the EUMETSAT Polar system
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) Polar System is the European contribution to the European?U.S. operational polar meteorological satellite system (Initial Joint Polar ...
RESEARCH CAMPAIGN: The Convective and Orographically Induced Precipitation Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The international field campaign called the Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study (COPS) took place from June to August 2007 in southwestern Germany/eastern France. The overarching goal of COPS is to ...
Hyperspectral Earth Observation from IASI: Five Years of Accomplishments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: red Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) forms the main infrared sounding component of the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites's (EUMETSAT's) Meteorological Operation (MetOp)-A ...
