ARM Shortwave Spectral Radiometry Strategy Review Report

Abstract

A meeting of experts in shortwave (SW) spectral measurements was held in February 2019 to discuss the current state of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) user facility instrumentation and the potential scientific impact of these measurements. Instrument mentors and users reported significant progress in hyperspectral measurement quality, with good-quality data sets now possible at several field campaigns and fixed sites. Ongoing filter-based measurement improvements, including addition of the 1.6-micron channel to the multifilter rotating shadowband radiometer (MFRSR) and lunar tracking mode of the Cimel sun photometers, were also lauded as exciting developments to improve retrievals of aerosol radiative properties and size distributions.

Water4Energy Step-1 Band-M Ready-to-Train Samples for TVA Weeks-to-Years Prediction, Version 0

AI-ready Band-M (monthly) labelled training pack for the Water4Energy Genesis Task-1 project on weeks-to-years prediction of Tennessee Valley temperature and precipitation. The deposit includes leakage-aware issue-time samples (samples_M_v0.nc; N=486), train-only scalers, issue-time split table, supporting monthly panels, and Python generation scripts to recreate the pack from the companion Tier-1 raw observation collection (https://doi.org/10.13139/ORNLNCCS/3398576). Each sample pairs a 12-month lookback of teleconnection indices and SST box anomalies with TVA-mean ERA5 anomaly targets (t2m, tp, msl) at leads 1–3 months.
