متن کاملSatellite Inferred Global Climatology
Clouds are essential for life to exist on earth due to their influential climatological impact. Clouds help control the radiation balance of the earth by reflecting incoming solar radiation, a cooling process; however, clouds also act as absorbers of terrestrial infrared radiation, a warming process. This dual role is a primary motive to examine the effects clouds have on the global climate. Qu...
متن کاملValidation of Long-Term Global Aerosol Climatology Project Optical Thickness Retrievals Using AERONET and MODIS Data
A comprehensive set of monthly mean aerosol optical thickness (AOT) data from coastal and island AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) stations is used to evaluate Global Aerosol Climatology Project (GACP) retrievals for the period 1995–2009 during which contemporaneous GACP and AERONET data were available. To put the GACP performance in broader perspective, we also compare AERONET and MODerate res...

متن کاملImproving GCM Aerosol Climatology using Satellite and Ground-Based Measurements
A physically based aerosol climatology is essential to address the questions of global climate changes. We use available satellite and ground-based measurements, i.e., moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS), multiangle imaging spectroradiometer (MISR), Polarization and Directionality of the earth’s Reflectance (POLDER), advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR), and Aeroso...
