Atmospheric Water Content over the Tropical Pacific Derived from the Nimbus-6 Scanning Microwave Spectrometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The scanning microwave spectrometer (SCAMS) aboard Nimbus-6 contains a 22.23 GHz water vapor channel and 31.65 GHz window channel for deriving integrated water vapor (precipitable water) and cloud liquid water through a ...
A Radiative Heating Model Derived from the GATE MSR Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A seven-channel Multi-spectral Scanning Radiometer (MSR) was flown aboard the NASA Convair-990 aircraft during the GARP Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE) from June?September, 1974. The radiometer measures the total ...
Comparison of 15-μ TIROS VII Data with Radiosonde Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temperatures derived from the 15-? CO2 channel of the radiometer carried aboard the TIROS VII satellite were compared to the radiosonde temperatures at 100, 70, 50, 30, 20 and 10 mb at 97 stations in the Northern Hemisphere ...
Antarctic Stratospheric Warmings During 1963 Revealed by 15-μ TIROS VII Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: TIROS VII 15-? radiation data were used to study Southern Hemisphere stratospheric warmings during the winter of 1963 over regions which had little conventional data. Three significant warmings could be mapped despite the ...
