Retro-reflectivity and Night Visibility of Road Traffic Signs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to standardize and conduct use of road traffic signs and retro-reflective material and enhance night visibility of traffic signs, grades, categories, structures, photometric characteristics, colorimetric characteristics ...
Direct Aerosol Radiative Forcing Uncertainty Based on a Radiative Perturbation Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To provide a lower bound for the uncertainty in measurement-based clear- and all-sky direct aerosol radiative forcing (DARF), a radiative perturbation analysis is performed for the ideal case in which the perturbations in ...
Performance of Commercial Radiometers in Very Low Temperature and Pressure Environments Typical of Polar Regions and of the Stratosphere: A Laboratory Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Characterizing the performance of ground-based commercial radiometers in cold and/or low-pressure environments is critical for developing accurate flux measurements in the polar regions and in the upper troposphere and ...
Light Reflection from Water Waves: Suitable Setup for a Polarimetric Investigation under Controlled Laboratory Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The reflection of sunlight from a wavy water surface, often referred to as sun glint, is a well-known phenomenon that presents challenges but also hitherto untapped opportunities in remote sensing based on satellite imagery. ...
Multi-Instrument Comparison of Top-of-Atmosphere Reflected Solar Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations from the Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Multiangle Imaging Spectroradiometer (MISR), and Sea-Viewing Wide-Field-of-View Sensor ...
Surface Irradiances of Edition 4.0 Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) Energy Balanced and Filled (EBAF) Data Product
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe algorithm to produce the Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES) Edition 4.0 (Ed4) Energy Balanced and Filled (EBAF)-surface data product is explained. The algorithm forces computed top-of-atmosphere ...
Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) Energy Balanced and Filled (EBAF) Top-of-Atmosphere (TOA) Edition-4.0 Data Product
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES) Energy Balanced and Filled (EBAF) top-of-atmosphere (TOA), Edition 4.0 (Ed4.0), data product is described. EBAF Ed4.0 is an update to EBAF Ed2.8, incorporating ...
