Improved Diurnal Interpolation of Reflected Broadband Shortwave Observations Using ISCCP Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The multisatellite Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) was designed to provide complete temporal coverage of the solar-reflected and earth-emitted radiation. Following operation of ERBE scanners on as few as one and ...
Did the Eruption of the Mt. Pinatubo Volcano Affect Cirrus Properties?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Some observations suggest that the volcanic aerosols produced by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption may have altered cirrus. The authors look for evidence that such modification of cirrus is extensive enough to be climatically ...
Characteristics of the TOVS Pathfinder Path-B Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: From 1979 to present, sensors aboard the NOAA series of polar meteorological satellites have provided continuous measurements of the earth's surface and atmosphere. One of these sensors, the TIROS-N Operational Vertical ...
Comparison of High-Cloud Characteristics as Estimated by Selected Spaceborne Observations and Ground-Based Lidar Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The characterization of high clouds as performed from selected spaceborne observations is assessed in this article by employing a number of worldwide ground-based lidar multiyear datasets as reference. Among the latter, ...
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 ...
