RISMethodology for Deriving Deep-Layer Mean Temperatures from Combined Satellite Infrared and Microwave Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Deep-layer mean temperatures from Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) observations have been used by scientists to study trends and interannual variations of tropospheric and lower-stratospheric temperature. The spatial resolution ...

Abstract: Deep-layer mean temperatures from Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) observations have been used by scientists to study trends and interannual variations of tropospheric and lower-stratospheric temperature. The spatial resolution ...
An Algorithm to Generate Deep-Layer Temperatures from Microwave Satellite Observations for the Purpose of Monitoring Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An algorithm for generating deep-layer mean temperatures from satellite-observed microwave observations is presented. Unlike traditional temperature retrieval methods, this algorithm does not require a first guess temperature ...
Potential Loss of Predictability in the Numerical Weather Prediction from the Reduced Spatial Coverage of the Polar-Orbiting Satellite Observing System
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Error Structure and Atmospheric Temperature Trends in Observations from the Microwave Sounding Unit
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) onboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration polar-orbiting satellites measures the atmospheric temperature from the surface to the lower stratosphere under all weather ...
On the Use of Geometric Moments to Examine the Continuum of Sudden Stratospheric Warmings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The polar winter stratospheric vortex is a coherent structure that undergoes different types of deformation that can be revealed by the geometric invariant moments. Three moments are used?the aspect ratio, the centroid ...
The Limb Adjustment of AMSU-A Observations: Methodology and Validation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) is the first of a new generation of polar-orbiting cross-track microwave sounders operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. A feature of a cross-track ...
Biaxial Residual Stress Mapping for a Dissimilar Metal Welded Nozzle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a sequence of residual stress measurements made to determine a twodimensional map of biaxial residual stress in a nozzle mockup having two welds, one a dissimilar metal (DM) weld and the other a stainless ...
A Water Vapor Index from Satellite Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for deriving a water vapor index is presented. An important feature of the index is the fact that it does not rely on radiosondes. Thus, it is not influenced by problems associated with radiosondes and the extent ...
Efficiency of the Satellite Retrieval of Mean Virtual Temperatures as a Function of Layer Thickness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Layer-mean virtual temperatures retrieved from satellite measurements are more accurate than retrievals at specific pressure not only because an averaging process is involved, but also because of advantages in the retrieval ...
