Abstract: Images provided by the water vapor channel data of meteorological satellites are suitable for the determination of wind vectors in the midtroposphere. Preprocessing the image data affects the quality and quantity of the ...

Abstract: Temperature Humidity Infrared Radiometer (THIR) data of adjacent Nimbus 5 orbits have been used to derive winds in the upper troposphere from the radiance measured in a wide spectral interval within the 6.3 ?m water vapor ...
