Reducing Uncertainties of SNO-Estimated Intersatellite AMSU-A Brightness Temperature Biases for Surface-Sensitive Channels
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study, a technique has been developed to improve collocation of two passive-microwave satellite instrument datasets at a simultaneous nadir overpass (SNO). The technique has been designed for the purpose of reducing ...
Quantifying EOS Aqua and NOAA POES AMSU-A Brightness Temperature Biases for Weather and Climate Applications Utilizing the SNO Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Systematic biases between brightness temperature (Tb) measurements made from concurrently operational Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) instruments can introduce errors into weather and climate applications. For ...
Predicting Simultaneous Nadir Overpasses among Polar-Orbiting Meteorological Satellites for the Intersatellite Calibration of Radiometers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for accurately predicting simultaneous nadir overpasses (SNOs) among different sun-synchronous polar-orbiting meteorological satellites is presented for intersatellite radiometer calibration. At each SNO, the ...
Dynamic Variational-Asymptotic Procedure for Laminated Composite Shells—Part I: Low-Frequency Vibration Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An asymptotically correct dynamic shell theory, valid over a wide range of frequencies and wavelengths, is rigorously derived from an analytical point of view. The derivation provides insight ...
Dynamic Variational-Asymptotic Procedure for Laminated Composite Shells—Part II: High-Frequency Vibration Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shell theories intended for low-frequency vibration analysis are frequently constructed from a generalization of the classical shell theory in which the normal displacement (to a first approximation) ...
A General Analysis of Phase-Change Energy Storage for Solar Energy Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A unified approach is developed for the analysis of one, two, or three-phase melting or solidification of a semi-infinite medium with or without subcooling or superheating and imposed with ...
Intercalibration of GOES-11 and GOES-12 Water Vapor Channels with MetOp IASI Hyperspectral Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The calibrated radiances from geostationary water vapor channels play an important role for weather forecasting, data assimilation, and climate studies. Therefore, better understanding the data quality for radiance ...
