Jovian Winds from Voyager 2. Part II: Analysis of Eddy Transports
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous Voyager 1 and 2 Jovian circulation measurements exhibit a large positive correlation between eddy momentum transports and the meridional shear of the zonal wind component, implying a very large rate of conversion ...
The Skin-Layer Ocean Heat Flux Instrument (SOHFI). Part II: Field Measurements of Surface Heat Flux and Solar Irradiance
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Skin-Layer Ocean Heat Flux Instrument (SOHFI) described by Sromovsky et al. (Part I, this issue) was field-tested in a combination of freshwater and ocean deployments. Solar irradiance monitoring and field calibration ...
The Skin-Layer Ocean Heat Flux Instrument (SOHFI). Part I: Design and Laboratory Characterization
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An untended instrument to measure ocean surface heat flux has been developed for use in support of field experiments and the investigation of heat flux parameterization techniques. The sensing component of the Skin-Layer ...
Jovian Winds from Voyager 2. Part I: Zonal Mean Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Independent measurements of Jovian cloud motions confirm previously published results on the general structure of Jupiter's zonal mean circulation. The new results are based on Voyager 2 images and measurement techniques ...
GHIS—The GOES High-Resolution Interferometer Sounder
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high spectral resolution interferometer sounder (GHIS) has been designed for flight on future geostationary meteorological satellites. It incorporates the measurement principles of an aircraft prototype instrument, which ...
