The Possibility of Determining Whether Organized Cloud Clusters Will Develop into Tropical Storms by Detecting Warm Core Structures from Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit Observations
The air temperature profiles of organized cloud clusters developing or not developing into tropical storms (TSs) over the western North Pacific in 2004 were investigated from Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) observations and the results of Dvorak analyses for the cloud clusters. First, typical temperature profiles of the clusters developing or not developing into TSs were compared. From ...
متن کاملAlgorithm and validation of a tropical cyclone central pressure estimation method based on warm core intensity as observed using the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A)
The Meteorological Research Institute (MRI) of the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) developed a new method for estimating tropical cyclone (TC) minimum sea level pressure (MSLP) from TC warm core intensity as observed using the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A). This approach is based on regression between TC warm core intensity data obtained from AMSU-A 55-GHz band brightness temper...
متن کاملTropical Cyclone Wind Retrievals from the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit: Application to Surface Wind Analysis
Horizontal winds at 850 hPa from tropical cyclones retrieved using the nonlinear balance equation, where the mass field was determined from Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) temperature soundings, are compared with the surface wind fields derived from NASA’s Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) and Hurricane Research Division H*Wind analyses. It was found that the AMSU-derived wind speeds at 85...
متن کاملA Bias in the Midtropospheric Channel Warm Target Factor on the NOAA-9 Microwave Sounding Unit
The University of Alabama at Huntsville (UAH), Remote Sensing Systems (RSS), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have constructed long-term temperature records for deep atmospheric layers using satellite Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) observations. However, these groups disagree on the magnitude of global temperature trends s...
متن کاملDetecting Tropical Cyclone Structural Change with the TRMM Precipitation Radar (PR) and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU)
One of the most critical parameters to monitor within a tropical cyclone (TC) are temperature anomalies. The maintenance of the thermal structure gives important insight into a TC’s strength and maturity that allow forecasters to warn appropriately for intensity fluctuations. The conversion of a TC’s symmetric warm core into an extratropical cyclone’s asymmetric cold core, a process known as Ex...
