Book Global Atlas of Relative Cloud Cover  1967 70

Download or read book Global Atlas of Relative Cloud Cover 1967 70 written by Donald B. Miller and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The atlas was prepared from data acquired during the period January 1, 1967, through December 31, 1970. Picture signals were computer processed to prepare hemispheric charts of monthly, seasonal, semiannual, and annual charts of relative cloud cover, in octas, over both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Similar presentations of tropical cloudiness are included. This atlas is one of the first attempts to use satellite data in the preparation of a climatology of daytime cloudiness over the globe.

Book Specification of Current and Future Cloud Amounts and Ceilings from Satellite Data

Download or read book Specification of Current and Future Cloud Amounts and Ceilings from Satellite Data written by John H. Conover and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objective methods and their accuracies for deriving current and six-hour forecasts of cloud amount and ceiling from satellite data are presented. Data from the visible and IR window bands were tested to develop relationships. The IR data did not significantly improve the results. The visible data were carefully calibrated, navigated, and normalized for solar elevation and bidirectional reflectance. Cloud motions were also used for the six-hour forecasts. The data were reduced to values of average brightness and its standard deviation over 1/2 deg by 1/2 deg areas before analysis. RMSE of current cloud amounts (on a scale of 0 to 1) are about 0.25 and for six hours later about 0.35. The occurrence of a ceiling/no ceiling was specified correctly 80% and 70% of the time at zero and six hours, respectively. Various methods are shown for minimization of ceiling errors over different height ranges. In general, RMSE of specified and forecast ceilings range from 4000 to 6000 ft at low levels to 9000 to 10,000 ft at mid and high levels. (Author).

Book Climatology from Satellites

Download or read book Climatology from Satellites written by Eric Barrett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1974, was a pioneering study which summarized, within the pre-existing framework of atmospheric knowledge, the more significant findings that emerged from the first decade of climatological analyses of meteorological satellite data. It shows how these data complement and extend the traditional coverage of climatology. The book draws together in one volume research findings which were not previously available in book form and which significantly improve the understanding of climate, especially in regions that were conventionally data-remote.

Book Point Comparisons of Total Cloud Cover from Satellites and from Surface Observations

Download or read book Point Comparisons of Total Cloud Cover from Satellites and from Surface Observations written by Patrick J. O'Reilly and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report compares cloud-cover observations made by ground observers and relative cloud-cover estimates determined from satellite-measured brightness values. Comparisons are made when each type of cloud (9 low type, 9 middle type, and 9 high type) are found alone and also with various combinations taken over the China mainland and portions of Southeast Asia. Satellite observations from the ESSA and ITOS series of satellites are used. Both tabulated and graphical presentations of the results are included along with the author's comments on the investigative procedures and findings.

Book Atmosphere   Ocean Dynamics

Download or read book Atmosphere Ocean Dynamics written by Adrian E. Gill and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics deals with a systematic and unified approach to the dynamics of the ocean and atmosphere. The book reviews the relationship of the ocean-atmosphere and how this system functions. The text explains this system through radiative equilibrium models; the book also considers the greenhouse effect, the effects of convection and of horizontal gradients, and the variability in radiative driving of the earth. Equations in the book show the properties of a material element, mass conservation, the balance of scalar quantity (such as salinity), and the mathematical behavior of the ocean and atmosphere. The book also addresses how the ocean-atmosphere system tends to adjust to equilibrium, both in the absence and presence of driving forces such as gravity. The text also explains the effect of the earth's rotation on the system, as well as the application of forced motions such as that produced by wind or temperature changes. The book explains tropical dynamics and the effects of variation of the Coriolis parameter with latitude. The text will be appreciated by meteorologists, environmentalists, students studying hydrology, and people working in general earth sciences.
