Atmospheric Instability Parameters Derived from Msg Seviri Observations
Within the MSG Global Instability Index (GII) product, information on the static stability and other airmass parameters will be operationally derived and disseminated. The GII product should serve as a nowcasting tool to identify the potential of convection and possibly of severe storms in still preconvective conditions. The applied retrieval method makes use of six MSG SEVIRI thermal bands, an...
متن کاملDust Detection and Optical Depth Retrieval Using MSG SEVIRI Data
Thanks to its observational frequency of 15 min, the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) geostationary satellite offers a great potential to monitor dust storms. To explore this potential, an algorithm for the detection and the retrieval of dust aerosol optical properties has been tested. This is a multispectral algorithm based on visible and infrared data which has been applied to 15 case studies...
متن کاملLand-Surface Temperature Retrieval from MSG/SEVIRI over Brazil Using Emissivity Maps Derived from MODIS Data

Email: [email protected], Tel. +55 12 3186 9454, Fax. +55 12 3186 9291 Abstract – In the present work a split-window (SW) algorithm is developed in the framework of Brazilian National Institute for Space Research (INPE)/Center for Weather Forecast and Climatic Studies (CPTEC) in order to derive land-surface temperature from Meteosat Second Generation (MSG...
متن کاملComparison of Operational Cloud Properties Derived from Gome/ers-2 and Msg/seviri Data
We focus on the retrieval of cloud properties appropriate for trace gas retrieval from sun-normalized UV/VIS backscatter spectra obtained from the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) on-board ERS-2. A data fusion technique is applied to calculate the fractional cloud cover of GOME footprints from GOME’s Polarization Measurement Devices (PMDs). Furthermore, cloudtop albedo and cloud-top he...
