A method for reducing the impact of noise in the 3.7 micron spectral channel in climate data records derived from coarse resolution (4 km) global measurements from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data is presented. A dynamic size-varying median filter is applied to measurements guided by measured noise levels and scene temperatures for individual AVHRR sensors on historic N...

Introduction This report describes the 2013/14 assessment of multi-spectral, false color composites produced by the NASA Short-term Prediction Research and Transition (SPoRT) Center, similar to other products developed previously by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) and the European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT). Products herein are generated from t...

Over the past decade, the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU/APL) with the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has been converting synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery from virtually all modern spaceborne SAR systems into high-resolution wind speed imagery. The APL/NOAA SAR Wind Retrieval System (ANSWRS) is an outgrowth of the Alaska SAR Demonstration Proje...

The University of Alabama at Huntsville (UAH), Remote Sensing Systems (RSS), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have constructed long-term temperature records for deep atmospheric layers using satellite Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) observations. However, these groups disagree on the magnitude of global temperature trends s...
