RISThe Impact of Multispectral GOES-8 Wind Information on Atlantic Tropical Cyclone Track Forecasts in 1995. Part I: Dataset Methodology, Description, and Case Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite-based remote sensing has long been recognized as an important method to reconnoiter oceanic tropical cyclones due to the scarcity of in situ observations. Beyond the standard qualitative applications offered by ...
Atmospheric Motion Vectors from Model Simulations. Part I: Methods and Characterization as Single-Level Estimates of Wind
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he objective of this study is to improve the characterization of satellite-derived atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) and their errors to guide developments in the use of AMVs in numerical weather prediction. AMVs tend to ...
Assessment of MISR Cloud Motion Vectors (CMVs) Relative to GOES and MODIS Atmospheric Motion Vectors (AMVs)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: loud motion vector (CMV) winds retrieved from the Multiangle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) instrument on the polar-orbiting Terra satellite from 2003 to 2008 are compared with collocated atmospheric motion vectors (AMVs) ...
Using Sounder Data to Improve Cirrus Cloud Height Estimation from Satellite Imagers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractModern polar-orbiting meteorological satellites provide both imaging and sounding observations simultaneously. Most imagers, however, do not have H2O and CO2 absorption bands and therefore struggle to accurately ...
