Microwave temperature and pressure measurements with the Odin satellite: I. Observational method
The Odin satellite is equipped with millimetre and sub-millimetre receivers for observations of several molecular lines in the middle and upper atmosphere of our planet (∼25–100 km, the particular altitude range depending on the species) for studies in dynamics, chemistry, and energy transfer in these regions. The same receivers are also used to observe molecules in outer space, this being the ...
متن کاملMicrowave temperature and pressure measurements with the Odin satellite: II. Retrieval method
The millimetre receiver on the Swedish satellite Odin, will be used for detection of the 118.750 GHz oxygen line. The temperature and pressure will be determined from the output of a three-channel filter bank measurement. One frequency bin is centred over the emission-line frequency while the other two cover parts of the line wing, where the opacity is less, providing a useful signal at lower a...
متن کاملUsing sea surface temperature measurements from microwave and infrared satellite measurements
The Tropical Rainfall Mapping Mission Microwave Imager (TMI) instrument Sea Surface Temperature (SST) product (v1.0) is compared with in situ observations obtained in the Atlantic Ocean. The TMI SST has a mean warm bias of 0.25K¡0.7K when compared to in situ SST at a depth of 7m. When TMI SST are compared to in situ skin SST measurements, the bias is 0.6K¡0.5K. A limited global comparison betwe...
متن کاملA Study to determine the accuracy of satellite measurements for the salinity pattern and surface temperature of Persian Gulf using statistical method
The aim of this paper is to determine the sea surface salinity (SSS) and temperature (SST) of Persian Gulf by using the AMSU-B sensor data of NOAA-16 satellite. A multiple linear regression method was used by statistical computing software R on AMSU-B data and in-situ data. Based on the results, the correlation coefficient (R2) for salinity and temperature was 0.85 and 0.94, respectively. Also,...
متن کاملAssimilating satellite microwave radiance measurements over the Antarctic
As there are few in situ observations in and around Antarctica, it is important to assess how assimilating remotely-sensed observations, such as satellite-observed radiances, can fill this observational gap. Thus, a month-long study was conducted over the Antarctic to examine forecast and analysis sensitivity to the assimilation of microwave radiance measurements. Several experiments were confi...
