RISVertical Displacements Induced by Quasi-Stationary Waves in the Southern Hemisphere Stratosphere during Spring
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical displacements induced by the quasi-stationary wave with wavenumber 1 (QSW1) in the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere during spring are studied. The displacement exhibits two amplitude maxima located in the upper ...
Remote Sounding of the Tropical Cirrus Cloud Temperature and Optical Depth Using 6.5 and 10.5 μm Radiometers during STEP
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dual-channel retrieval technique involving the water vapor band at 6.5 ?m and the window region at 10.5 gm has been developed to infer the temperature and emissivity of tropical anvils. This technique has been applied ...
