Characterization of Atmospheric Profile Retrievals From Limb Sounding Observations of an Inhomogeneous Atmosphere
Limb sounders measure atmospheric radiation that is dependent on a radial and angular distribution of temperature and atmospheric constituents. Based on this dependency, we perform and characterize both two dimensional (radial and angular) and one dimensional (vertical) limb profile retrievals of a distribution of carbon monoxide (CO), which represents a simulated plume off the coast of south-e...
متن کاملNeural network microwave precipitation retrievals and modeling results Citation
We describe a simulation methodology used to develop and validate precipitation retrieval algorithms for current and future passive microwave sounders with emphasis on the NPOESS (National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System) sensors. Precipitation algorithms are currently being developed for ATMS, MIS, and NAST-M. ATMS, like AMSU, will have channels near the oxygen bands ...

متن کاملError Structure and Atmospheric Temperature Trends in Observations from the Microwave Sounding Unit
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 conditions, excluding precipitation. Although designed primarily for monitoring weather processes, the MSU observations have been extensively used for detecting climate trends, an...
متن کاملUncertainties in sea surface temperature retrievals from space: Comparison of microwave and infrared observations from TRMM
[1] A study of the uncertainties in infrared (IR) and microwave (MW) sea surface temperature (SST) retrievals by satellite is described here. The availability of both infrared (VIRS) and microwave (TMI) sensors on the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) provided an opportunity to perform this detailed SST intercomparison from two distinct but colocated sensors. Infrared retrievals prov...
