  • Properties of semitransparent upper-level clouds deduced from multispectral imagery data

    Creator:
    Lin, Xijian
    Abstract:
    A multispectral retrieval method is developed on the 100 km regional scale to extract the temperature, particle size, fractional cover and 11-μm emissivity of clouds which may be semitransparent in the infrared based on emitted radiances. The scheme utilizes the nonlinear relationship between emitted radiances when clouds are semitransparent and...

  • Air-sea heat exchange along the northern sea surface temperature front in the eastern tropical Pacific

    Creator:
    Thum, Nicolai
    Abstract:
    The atmospheric response to the oceanic forcing in the eastern Pacific along the northern equatorial sea surface temperature (SST) front is investigated in terms of sensible and latent heat flux during the 6-month period 28 July 1999 through 27 January 2000. Of particular interest is the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL)...
