Solar Tides as Revealed by Measurements of Mesosphere Temperature by the MLS Experiment on UARS
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temperatures between 25 and 86 km measured by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) experiment on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) are analyzed to delineate diurnal, semidiurnal, and terdiurnal tidal structures ...
Global Gravity Wave Variances from Aura MLS: Characteristics and Interpretation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The gravity wave (GW)?resolving capabilities of 118-GHz saturated thermal radiances acquired throughout the stratosphere by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the Aura satellite are investigated and initial results ...
A Least Squares Method for Spectral Analysis of Space-Time Series
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Common methods in spectral analyses of satellite data are the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) type of approaches, which generally require regular sampling and uniform spacing. These conditions sometimes cannot be met in ...
Stationary Planetary Waves Inferred from WINDII Wind Data Taken within Altitudes 90–120 km during 1991–96
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A climatology of stationary planetary waves (SPWs) in horizontal winds at latitudes 70°S?70°N and altitudes 90?120 km is obtained from Wind-Imaging Interferometer (WINDII) green line measurements in December?January and ...
Inversion Effect of Asphalt Pavement with Two Courses of Semi-Rigid Base
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To study the combination principles of structural design and material design in asphalt pavement with semi-rigid bases, the software BISAR3. was used to analyze the load responses in asphalt pavement with two layers of ...
MLS and CALIOP Cloud Ice Measurements in the Upper Troposphere: A Constraint from Microwave on Cloud Microphysics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the consistency and microphysics assumptions among satellite ice water content (IWC) retrievals in the upper troposphere with collocated A-Train radiances from Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) and lidar ...
Direct Influence of Solar Spectral Irradiance on the High-Latitude Surface Climate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Intercomparison of Surface Temperatures from AIRS, MERRA, and MERRA-2 with NOAA and GC-Net Weather Stations at Summit, Greenland
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe surface skin and air temperatures reported by the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AIRS/AMSU-A), the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA), and ...
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) ...
Comparison of Proxy-Shortwave Cloud Albedo from SBUV Observations with CMIP6 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
