The Anticipated Sounding Capabilities of GOES-I and Beyond
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: One aspect of the modernized observational capability of the National Weather Service will be geostationary sounding of temperature and moisture from GOES-I, currently scheduled for launch in 1992. The capability has evolved ...
Total Precipitable Water Measurements from GOES Sounder Derived Product Imagery
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Statistics are compiled comparing calculations of total precipitable water (TPW) as given by GOES sounder derived product imagery (DPI) to that computed from radiosonde data for the 12-month period March 1998?February 1999. ...
Estimating Soil Wetness from the GOES Sounder
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this note, the relationship between the observed daytime rise in surface radiative temperature, derived from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) sounder clear-sky data, and modeled soil moisture ...
A Nonlinear Physical Retrieval Algorithm—Its Application to the GOES-8/9 Sounder
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A nonlinear physical retrieval algorithm is developed and applied to the GOES-8/9 sounder radiance observations. The algorithm utilizes Newtonian iteration in which the maximum probability solution for temperature and water ...
Evaluation of the GOES-R ABI LAP Retrieval Algorithm Using the GOES-13 Sounder
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: physical retrieval algorithm has been developed for deriving the legacy atmospheric profile (LAP) product from infrared radiances of the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) on board the next-generation Geostationary Operational ...
Intercalibration of the Infrared Window and Water Vapor Channels on Operational Geostationary Environmental Satellites Using a Single Polar-Orbiting Satellite
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS) has been intercalibrating radiometers on five geostationary satellites (GOES-8, -10, Meteosat-5, -7, and GMS-5) using a single polar-orbiting or low-earth ...
Derived Product Imagery from GOES-8
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Derived product imagery (DPI) is a method of presenting quantitative meteorological information, derived from satellite measurements, as a color-coded image at single-pixel resolution. Its intended use is as animated ...
Mathematical Aspects in Meteorological Processing of Infrared Spectral Measurements from the GOES Sounder. Part II: Analysis of Spatial and Temporal Continuity of Spectral Measurements from the GOES-8 Sounder
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial and temporal continuity of the infrared measurements from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES)-8 sounder data are investigated, and an experimental processing approach is presented. ...
Applications of Full Spatial Resolution Space-Based Advanced Infrared Soundings in the Preconvection Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: dvanced infrared (IR) sounders such as the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) provide atmospheric temperature and moisture profiles with high vertical resolution and ...
