Abstract:
Abstract Measurements made by microwave sounding instruments provide a multidecadal record of atmospheric temperature change. Measurements began in late 1978 with the launch of the first Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and continue to the present. In 1998, the first of the follow-on series of instruments—the Advanced Microwave Sounding Units (AMSUs)—was launched. To continue the atmospheric temperature record past 2004, when measurements from the last MSU instrument degraded in quality, AMSU and MSU measurements must be intercalibrated and combined to extend the atmospheric temperature data records. Calibration methods are described for three MSU–AMSU channels that measure the temperature of thick layers of the atmosphere centered in the middle troposphere, near the tropopause, and in the lower stratosphere. Some features of the resulting datasets are briefly summarized.

Abstract:
Abstract The sensitivity of NWP forecast accuracy with respect to the radiometric performance of microwave sounders is assessed through a series of observing system experiments at the Met Office and ECMWF. The observing system experiments compare the impact of normal data from a single Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) with that from an AMSU where synthetic noise has been added. The results show a measurable reduction in forecast improvement in the Southern Hemisphere, with improvements reduced by 11% for relatively small increases in radiometric noise [noise-equivalent brightness temperature (NEΔT) increased from 0.1 to 0.2 K for remapped data]. The impact of microwave sounding data is shown to be significantly less than was the case prior to the use of advanced infrared sounder data [Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI)], with microwave sounding data now reducing Southern Hemisphere forecast errors by approximately 10% compared to 40% in the pre-AIRS/IASI period.

Abstract:
A case study of hurricane Floyd (1999) is performed using the Penn State/NCAR MM5 model. Hurricane Floyd was the third most costly hurricane to have hit the United States.
To predict accurately the track and evolution of the hurricane, a vortex bogusing technique has been devised. A more realistic initial vortex was specified and introduced into the large-scale analysis for model initialization. The technique used follows closely that described by Zhu et al. (2002) where Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) data are employed to retrieve the temperature of the hurricane vortex. An algorithm is then applied to compute the sea level pressure, geopotential heights, winds and moisture content. Three experiments initialized with three different data sets were performed, using respectively the original Canadian Meteorological Centre (CMC) analysis, the bogus-vortex modified CMC analysis with the original CMC sea surface temperature (SST) field, and a bogus-vortex modified CMC analysis with a spatially-constant SST of 28°C.

Abstract:
Limited Time Period (LTP) running trends are used to evaluate Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) derived tropospheric temperature trend methods in an attempt to alleviate documented considerable disagreements between tropospheric datasets so investigation into the atmospheric variability is able to move forward.Regression derived coefficients were used to combine lower stratosphere (LS) and mid-troposphere to lower stratosphere (MT) simulated MSU channels from RATPAC radiosonde data. This protocol is used to estimate tropospheric temperature trends and compared to actual RATPAC derived tropospheric temperature trends. It is found that the statistical LS/MT combination results in greater than 50% error over some LTP. These errors are found to exist when strong cooling in the stratosphere is coincident with periods when the level separating cooling from warming is above the tropopause.LTP trends are also created from various MSU difference time series between the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) and Remote Sensing System (RSS) group's lower troposphere (LT) and MT channels. Results suggest the greatest discrepancies over time periods where NOAA-11 through NOAA-15 adjustments was applied to the raw LT data over land. Discrepancies are shown to be dominated by differences in diurnal correction methods due to orbital drift. Comparison of MSU data with radiosonde data indicate that RSS's method of determining diurnal effects is overestimating the correction in the LT channel. Diurnal correction signatures still exist in the RSS LT time series and are likely affecting the long term trend with a warm bias.These findings suggest atmospheric amplification is not happening in the atmosphere using globally averaged data over the MSU era. There is evidence however from the radiosonde data that shows greater warming in the ~300-500 hPa layer than at the surface during some LTP in the complete radiosonde database. This temporal change in temperature trends warrants further studies on this subject.This research suggests overall that the temporal changes in temperature trend profiles and their causes are extremely important in our understanding of atmospheric changes and are themselves, not well characterized.

Abstract:
Operational polar-orbiting environmental satellites launched in the early 1960s were designed for daily weather monitoring around the world. In the early years, they were mostly applied for cloud monitoring and for advancing skills in satellite data applications. The new era was opened with the series of TIROS-N launched in 1978, which has continued until present. These satellites have such instruments as the advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) and the TIROS operational vertical sounder (TOVS), which included a microwave sounding unit (MSU), a stratospheric sounding unit (SSU), and high-resolution infrared radiation sounder/2 (HIRS/2). These instruments helped weather forecasters improve their skills. AVHRR instruments were also useful for observing and monitoring earth surface. Specific advances were achieved in understanding vegetation distribution. Since the late 1980s, experience gained in interpreting vegetation conditions from satellite images has helped develop new applications for detecting phenomenon such as drought and its impacts on agriculture. The objective of this chapter is to introduce AVHRR indices that have been useful for detecting most unusual droughts in the world during 1990–2000, a decade identified by the United Nations as the International Decade for Natural Disasters Reduction. Radiances measured by the AVHRR instrument onboard National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) polar-orbiting satellites can be used to monitor drought conditions because of their sensitivity to changes in leaf chlorophyll, moisture content, and thermal conditions (Gates, 1970; Myers, 1970). Over the last 20 years, these radiances were converted into indices that were used as proxies for estimating various vegetation conditions (Kogan, 1997, 2001, 2002). The indices became indispensable sources of information in the absence of in situ data, whose measurements and delivery are affected by telecommunication problems, difficult access to environmentally marginal areas, economic disturbances, and political or military conflicts. In addition, indices have advantage over in situ data in terms of better spatial and temporal coverage and faster data availability. The AVHRR-based indices used for monitoring vegetation can be divided into two groups: two-channel indices, and three-channel indices.
