RISAutomated Retrieval of Cloud and Aerosol Properties from the ARM Raman Lidar. Part II: Extinction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: feature detection and extinction retrieval (FEX) algorithm for the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program?s (ARM) Raman lidar (RL) has been developed. Presented here is Part II of the FEX algorithm: the retrieval of ...
Uncertainty in observational estimates of the aerosol direct radiative effect and forcing
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A lower-bound on the uncertainty in observational estimates of the aerosol direct radiative effect (DRE, the direct interaction with solar radiation by all aerosols), and the aerosol direct radiative forcing (DRF, the ...
Removing Diurnal Cycle Contamination in Satellite-Derived Tropospheric Temperatures: Understanding Tropical Tropospheric Trend Discrepancies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ndependent research teams have constructed long-term tropical time series of the temperature of the middle troposphere (TMT) using satellite Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and Advanced MSU (AMSU) measurements. Despite careful ...

Investigation of the Residual in Column-Integrated Atmospheric Energy Balance Using Cloud Objects
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservationally based atmospheric energy balance is analyzed using Clouds and the Earth?s Radiant Energy System (CERES)-derived TOA and surface irradiance, Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP)-derived precipitation, ...
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 ...
