Examining the Constellation of Scatterometers and Radiometers for Diurnal and Sub-Diurnal Wind Vector Variability

The constellation of satellite-based ocean surface wind and precipitation observations since 1999 consists of a diverse collection of both sunsynchronous and asynchronous orbiting satellite platforms, both wind vector-capable (e.g., RapidScat, QuikSCAT, ASCAT) and speed-only radiometers (e.g., TRMM and GPM imagers, AMSR-E) The surface wind varies widely throughout the day, owing to various meteorological forcings, such as land/sea temperature differences, coastal forcings, or possible variations associated with tropical convection Where are regions of strongest time-of-day variability?

Evolution of the Tropical Cyclone Integrated Data Exchange And Analysis System (TC-IDEAS)

The Tropical Cyclone Integrated Data Exchange and Analysis System (TC-IDEAS) is being jointly developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) as part of NASA's Hurricane Science Research Program. The long-term goal is to create a comprehensive tropical cyclone database of satellite and airborne observations, in-situ measurements and model simulations containing parameters that pertain to the thermodynamic and microphysical structure of the storms; the air-sea interaction processes; and the large-scale environment.
