Book Atmospheric Temperature Profiles of the Northern Hemisphere

Download or read book Atmospheric Temperature Profiles of the Northern Hemisphere written by Young Yee and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-05-10 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three decades, the US Standard Atmosphere has been used by researchers and professionals in many areas of aeronautics and atmospheric sciences. It is an idealized, all season average temperature profile of the earth's atmosphere. But today's modern day and sophisticated global applications require more extensive representations of the mean temperature profile. This book is a global augmentation of the climatological tropospheric temperature profiles in the Northern Hemisphere for different latitude belts and seasons. There are 72 mean temperature profile tables from the surface up to 10 kilometers in height that represent the four seasons for different latitudinal belts (5° N, 10° N , 15° N, 20° N, 25° N, 30° N, 35° N, 40° N, 45° N, 50° N, 55° N, 60° N, 65° N, 70° N, 75° N, 80° N, 85° N). The model is based on a neural network algorithm that uses archived radiosonde data, retrieved temperature profiles from remote sensors, and the solar insolation at the top of the earth's atmosphere. It is the most comprehensive book of mean seasonal tropospheric temperature profiles to date. It will be an indispensible reference to the aeronautic and meteorological industries worldwide as well as an easy-to-use guide for climatologists, meteorologists, aeronautic engineers, researchers and aviators.

Book Variability of Air Temperature and Atmospheric Precipitation in the Arctic

Download or read book Variability of Air Temperature and Atmospheric Precipitation in the Arctic written by Rajmund Przybylak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been known at least since the end of the century that the polar areas play a very important role in the formation of the Earth’s climates. It is also known today that they are the most sensitive regions to climatic change, and are thus perfect case studies for the detection of such changes. The most serious obstacle to the study of climatic and other geographical elements of the polar areas (including the Arctic) has always been the severe climatic conditions which prevail in these regions. Because of these extreme con- tions, research into particular elements of the climatic system (including the atmosphere) began here much later than it did in lower latitudes. For instance, the whole area of the Arctic was not sufficiently covered with a network of meteorological stations until the late 1940s (and even then there were large areas of the central Arctic and the Greenland interior for which no data were available). This is probably why it was not until the start of the 1990s that a body of work began to appear which analysed in any depth climatic variability for the Arctic as a whole. While a considerable number of papers had been p- lished before this period, most of them were local studies presenting highly localised information, providing air temperature measurements but often little else.

Book An Atmospheric Temperature Profile Measured with an In situ Infrared Radiometer

Download or read book An Atmospheric Temperature Profile Measured with an In situ Infrared Radiometer written by R. A. McClatchey and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A side-looking infrared radiometer operating in a narrow spectral interval in the 15 micrometers carbon dioxide band was flown on a balloon platform. Data were obtained over the altitude range from 9.4 to 30 km. The resulting radiance measurements are compared with calculations making use of independent rawinsonde measurements obtained during the balloon flight. These comparisons indicate a systematic discrepancy of a few percent at lower altitudes increasing to 20 percent near 20 km. This discrepancy is found to be consistent with a previous study of satellite based radiances. Possible sources of this discrepancy are investigated and rejected, leading the authors to question the assumption that the source function is equal to the Planck intensity.

Book Tables  Distribution  and Variations of the Atmospheric Temperature of the United States  and Some Adjacent Parts of America

Download or read book Tables Distribution and Variations of the Atmospheric Temperature of the United States and Some Adjacent Parts of America written by Charles Anthony Schott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tables, Distribution, and Variations of the Atmospheric Temperature of the United States, and Some Adjacent Parts of America: Collected by the Smithsonian Institution Respecting the corrections necessary to refer monthly and annual means depend ing on observations at certain hours to what they would have been had the observa tions been made hourly and continued day and night, the reader is referred to the discussion of the daily variation of the temperature. In this discussion it is shown that the mean of hourly observations represents the average temperature of the day within about Fah. The following table of' corrections for daily variation to means resulting from observations at certain hours was prepared directly from observations extending over a series of years at Toronto, Mohawk, New Haven, and Philadelphia; it is inserted here on account of its frequent application to our tabular results, either to refer them to the mean of the day or to a uniform set of hours, in which latter case the table can be made readily to apply. This table of corrections was found to answer well enough for the Eastern and Western States lying within the range of latitudes of the four stations; for Southern States and for the elevated western portion of the United States other less reliable corrections had to be supplied.

Book Reconciling Observations of Global Temperature Change

Download or read book Reconciling Observations of Global Temperature Change written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-01-07 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An overall increase in global-mean atmospheric temperatures is predicted to occur in response to human-induced increases in atmospheric concentrations of heat-trapping "greenhouse gases." The most prominent of these gases, carbon dioxide, has increased in concentration by over 30% during the past 200 years, and is expected to continue to increase well into the future. Other changes in atmospheric composition complicate the picture. In particular, increases in the number of small particles (called aerosols) in the atmosphere regionally offset and mask the greenhouse effect, and stratospheric ozone depletion contributes to cooling of the upper troposphere and stratosphere. Many in the scientific community believe that a distinctive greenhouse-warming signature is evident in surface temperature data for the past few decades. Some, however, are puzzled by the fact that satellite temperature measurements indicate little, if any, warming of the lower to mid-troposphere (the layer extending from the surface up to about 8 km) since such satellite observations first became operational in 1979. The satellite measurements appear to be substantiated by independent trend estimates for this period based on radiosonde data. Some have interpreted this apparent discrepancy between surface and upper air observations as casting doubt on the overall reliability of the surface temperature record, whereas others have concluded that the satellite data (or the algorithms that are being used to convert them into temperatures) must be erroneous. It is also conceivable that temperatures at the earth's surface and aloft have not tracked each other perfectly because they have responded differently to natural and/or human-induced climate forcing during this particular 20-year period. Whether these differing temperature trends can be reconciled has implications for assessing: how much the earth has warmed during the past few decades, whether observed changes are in accord with the predicted response to the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere based on model simulations, and whether the existing atmospheric observing system is adequate for the purposes of monitoring global-mean temperature. This report reassesses the apparent differences between the temperature changes recorded by satellites and the surface thermometer network on the basis of the latest available information. It also offers an informed opinion as to how the different temperature records should be interpreted, and recommends actions designed to reduce the remaining uncertainties in these measurements.
