DCC Radiometric Sensitivity to Spatial Resolution, Cluster Size, and LWIR Calibration Bias Based on VIIRS Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Visible and Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on board the Suomi National Polar-Orbiting Partnership satellite brings new opportunities for improving scientists? understanding of deep convective cloud (DCC) ...
Stability of the MSU-Derived Atmospheric Temperature Trend
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Warm target effect and diurnal drift errors are the main sources of uncertainties in the trend determination from the NOAA Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) observations. Currently, there are two methods to correct the warm ...
AMSU-A-Only Atmospheric Temperature Data Records from the Lower Troposphere to the Top of the Stratosphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A, 1998?present) not only continues but surpasses the Microwave Sounding Unit?s (MSU, 1978?2006) capability in atmospheric temperature observation. It provides valuable satellite ...
Simultaneous Radio Occultation for Inter-satellite Comparison of Bending Angles towards More Accurate Atmospheric Sounding
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation (RO) is a remote sensing technique that uses International System of Units (SI) traceable GNSS signals for atmospheric limb soundings. The retrieved atmospheric ...
