Assessment of Shortwave Infrared Sea Surface Reflection and Nonlocal Thermodynamic Equilibrium Effects in the Community Radiative Transfer Model Using IASI Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he nadir-viewing satellite radiances at shortwave infrared channels from 3.5 to 4.6 ?m are not currently assimilated in operational numerical weather prediction data assimilation systems and are not adequately corrected ...
Model Calculations and Interferometer Measurements of Ice-Cloud Characteristics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper investigates the relationship between high?spectral resolution infrared (IR) radiances and the microphysical and macrophysical properties of cirrus clouds. Through use of radiosonde measurements of the atmospheric ...
Effect of Out-of-Band Response in NOAA-16 AVHRR Channel 3b on Top-of-Atmosphere Radiances Calculated with the Community Radiative Transfer Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Community Radiative Transfer Model (CRTM) developed at the Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation (JCSDA) is used in conjunction with a daily sea surface temperature (SST) and the National Centers for Environmental ...
Community Radiative Transfer Model for Stratospheric Sounding Unit
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: o better use the Stratospheric Sounding Unit (SSU) data for reanalysis and climate studies, issues associated with the fast radiative transfer (RT) model for SSU have recently been revisited and the results have been ...
All-Sky Microwave Radiance Assimilation in NCEP’s GSI Analysis System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he capability of all-sky microwave radiance assimilation in the Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation (GSI) analysis system has been developed at the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP). This development ...
The NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) was completed for the 31-yr period from 1979 to 2009, in January 2010. The CFSR was designed and executed as a global, high-resolution coupled atmosphere?ocean?land ...
