Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document for AMSR-E Ocean Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ocean algorithm is based on the physical Radiative Transfer Model (RTM) described in Wentz and Meissner [2000]. The RTM consists of an atmospheric absorption model for water vapor, oxygen and liquid cloud water and a sea surface emissivity model that parameterizes the emissivity as function of sea surface temperature, sea surface salinity, sea surface wind speed and direction. The details of the physical RTM have been described in Wentz and Meissner [2000]. Some components of the model have been updated. These are the dielectric constant of sea and cloud water [Meissner and Wentz, 2004], the isotropic wind induced sea surface emissivity [Meissner and Wentz, 2006] and the wind directional signal of the sea surface emissivity [Meissner and Wentz 2002, Meissner and Wentz 2006].

متن کاملAMSR - E Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document : Sea Ice Products
The AMSR-E sea ice standard level 3 products include sea ice concentration, sea ice temperature, and snow depth on sea ice. The AMSR-E standard sea ice concentration product is generated using the enhanced NASA Team (NT2) algorithm described by Markus and Cavalieri (2000), the snow depth is produced from the algorithm described by Markus and Cavalieri (1998) for both hemispheres, but excluding ...
متن کاملSea Ice Remote Sensing Using AMSR-E 89 GHz Channels
Recent progress in sea ice concentration remote sensing by satellite microwave radiometers has been stimulated by two developments: First, the new sensor AMSR-E offers spatial resolutions of approximately 6x4 km at 89 GHz, nearly three times the resolution of the standard sensor SSM/I at 85 GHz (15x13 km). Second, a new algorithm enables to estimate sea ice concentration from the channels near ...
