Mesoscale Sea Surface Currents Derived from Multi-sensor Satellite Imagery
The aim of the study presented herein is to use multisensor / multi-channel satellite images to compute meso-scale surface currents in the Northern and Central Baltic Proper. The images were acquired by the Thematic Mapper (TM) aboard Landsat, the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) aboard ERS-2, the Wide-Field Scanner (WiFS) aboard the IRS satellites, and the Seaviewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (S...
متن کاملExploring Machine Learning to Correct Satellite-Derived Sea Surface Temperatures
Machine learning techniques are attractive tools to establish statistical models with a high degree of non linearity. They require a large amount of data to be trained and are therefore particularly suited to analysing remote sensing data. This work is an attempt at using advanced statistical methods of machine learning to predict the bias between Sea Surface Temperature (SST) derived from infr...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Satellite-Derived Clear-Sky Atmospheric Temperature Inversion Strength in the Arctic, 1980–96
The low-level atmospheric temperature inversion is a dominant feature of the Arctic atmosphere throughout most of the year. Meteorological stations that provide radiosonde data are sparsely distributed across the Arctic, and therefore provide little information on the spatial distribution of temperature inversions. Satellite-borne sensors provide an opportunity to fill the observational gap. In...
متن کاملThe potential of clear-sky carbon dioxide satellite retrievals
Since the launch of the Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT) in 2009, retrieval algorithms designed to infer the column-averaged dry-air mole fraction of carbon dioxide (XCO2 ) from hyperspectral near-infrared observations of reflected sunlight have been greatly improved. They now generally include the scattering effects of clouds and aerosols, as early work found that absorption-only r...
متن کاملAssessing temporal clear-sky errors in assimilation of satellite CO2 retrievals using a global transport model
The Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) and the Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT) will make global observations of the total column dry-air mole fraction of atmospheric CO2 (XCO2 ) starting in 2008. Although satellites have global coverage, XCO2 retrievals will be made only a few times each month over a given location and will only be sampled in clear conditions. Modelers will use XCO2...
