Surface and Atmospheric Parameters Derived from AIRS/AMSU Data on Aqua
Abstract
AIRS (Atmospheric Infra-Red Sounder) and AMSU (Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit) comprise the advanced atmospheric and surface sounding system flying on the Aqua satellite launched in May 2002. Monthly mean fields derived from AIRS/AMSU data will be used to extend the climate record (1979-2002) contained in the TOVS Pathfinder Path A Data Set to further study climate variability and trends. Sample daily and monthly mean results derived from AIRS/AMSU data are presented, validated, and compared to equivalent results taken from ECMWF analyses.
