Book excerpt: 61102-B-53-A1-T-061102-B-53-A-17ECOM5470(*atmospheres, infrared radiation), meteorological satellites, infrared detectors, radiometers, atmospheric temperature, correlation techniquesatmospheric radiation, remote sensingThe mesoscale variability of outgoing radiation at wavelengths corresponding to the Satellite Infrared Spectrometer (SIRS) channels, which are centered at 750, 734, 709, and 701/cm, has been investigated by using calculated radiances based upon measured temperature data. Temperature profiles measured from six radiosonde stations located on White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico, were used with the radiative transfer equation to compute the radiances. Approximately 1750 temperature profiles obtained on 69 separate days were used in the study. The separation distance between pairs of stations varied from 10 to 157 km. (Author Modified Abstract).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general five-parameter band model for molecular absorptance in the infrared is used in the generation of numerous model variations in order to perform a feasibility analysis of band model representation of the 15-micron CO2 band. The accuracy of the models is evaluated by comparisons with the original line-by-line calculated spectra for vertical paths through a standard inhomogeneous atmosphere. The medium inhomogeneity is taken into consideration through the use of the Curtis-Godson relations, including moment variations. Line intensity effects are studied with actual intensity data averaged over 5/cm and with the use of a temperature-dependent factor. It is concluded that a band model representation may provide sufficient accuracy to be of value in meteorological applications only if the number and phenomenological nature of the band parameters are allowed to vary significantly throughout the band.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis was made of the Satellite Temperature Sounding Technique to determine the extent of temperature errors arising from possible atmospheric CO2 variations. These possible errors are compared to probable ozone-caused errors and to errors resulting from the radiometer uncertainties.

This book was released on 2009-01-06 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detailed weather observations on local and regional levels are essential to a range of needs from forecasting tornadoes to making decisions that affect energy security, public health and safety, transportation, agriculture and all of our economic interests. As technological capabilities have become increasingly affordable, businesses, state and local governments, and individual weather enthusiasts have set up observing systems throughout the United States. However, because there is no national network tying many of these systems together, data collection methods are inconsistent and public accessibility is limited. This book identifies short-term and long-term goals for federal government sponsors and other public and private partners in establishing a coordinated nationwide "network of networks" of weather and climate observations.

Book excerpt: The GOES-R Series: A New Generation of Geostationary Environmental Satellites introduces the reader to the most significant advance in weather technology in a generation. The world’s new constellation of geostationary operational environmental satellites (GOES) are in the midst of a drastic revolution with their greatly improved capabilities that provide orders of magnitude improvements in spatial, temporal and spectral resolution. Never before have routine observations been possible over such a wide area. Imagine satellite images over the full disk every 10 or 15 minutes and monitoring of severe storms, cyclones, fires and volcanic eruptions on the scale of minutes. Introduces the GOES-R Series, with chapters on each of its new products Provides an overview of how to read new satellite images Includes full-color images and online animations that demonstrate the power of this new technology
