RISGround Heat Flux Determination according to Land Skin Temperature Observations from In Situ Stations and Satellites
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Due to rapid progress in the development of remote sensing techniques, skin temperature can now be observed with global coverage from satellites. This study derives an equation for utilizing skin temperature measurements ...
Evaluations of Land–Ocean Skin Temperatures of the ISCCP Satellite Retrievals and the NCEP and ERA Reanalyses
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study evaluates the skin temperature (ST) datasets of the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) D satellite product, the ISCCP FD satellite product, the 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40), the NCEP?NCAR ...
Surface Energy Components and Land Characteristics of a Rice Paddy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Many meteorological and air-quality models require land characteristics as inputs. A field experiment was conducted to study the surface energy budget of a rice paddy in Taiwan. During the day, the energy balance ratio ...
Measurements of Aerodynamic Roughness, Bowen Ratio, and Atmospheric Surface Layer Height by Eddy Covariance and Tethersonde Systems Simultaneously over a Heterogeneous Rice Paddy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The aerodynamic roughness, Bowen ratio, and friction velocity were measured over a rice paddy using tethersonde and eddy covariance (EC) systems. In addition, the height ranges of the atmospheric inertial sublayer (ISL) ...
Effects of Surface Orography and Land–Sea Contrast on the Madden–Julian Oscillation in the Maritime Continent: A Numerical Study Using ECHAM5-SIT
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study uses the atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) ECHAM5 coupled with the newly developed Snow?Ice?Thermocline model (ECHAM5-SIT) to examine the effects of orography and land?sea contrast on the ...
