A MULTI-TEMPORAL APPROACH FOR DETECTING SNOW COVER AREA USING GEOSTATIONARY IMAGERY DATA [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
In this study, we attempt to detect snow cover area using multi-temporal geostationary satellite imagery based on the difference of spectral and temporal characteristics between snow and clouds. The snow detection method is based on sequential processing

Cloud cover: monitoring large-scale clouds with Varanus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cloud Computing, 2015
Cloud computing has quickly become the de facto means to deploy large scale systems in a robust and cost effective manner. Central to the maintenance of large scale systems is monitoring which allows for the detection of faults, errors and anomalies and the enacting of optimisation and corrective measures.

Understanding London's summertime cloud cover [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2021
AbstractCities are a source of complex land–atmosphere interactions. Spatial differences in the energy balance and enhanced surface roughness interact with the atmosphere to alter clouds and precipitation. Here, we explore how London (UK) alters cloud formation during the spring and summer. The Met Office's high‐resolution operational forecasts predict

Clouds cover variability in São Paulo

open access: yesRevista Ambiente & Água, 2016
Clouds cover observations are performed by visual inspection which determines the fraction of the sky that is overcast. However, visual observation of clouds cover is a very subjective method, and can vary significantly among observers.

HIPASS High-Velocity Clouds: Properties of the Compact and Extended Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
A catalog of Southern anomalous-velocity HI clouds at Decl. < +2 deg is presented, based on data from the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS). The improved sensitivity (5sigma: T_B = 0.04 K) and resolution (15.5') of the HIPASS data results in a ...

3D LAND COVER CLASSIFICATION BASED ON MULTISPECTRAL LIDAR POINT CLOUDS [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
Multispectral Lidar System can emit simultaneous laser pulses at the different wavelengths. The reflected multispectral energy is captured through a receiver of the sensor, and the return signal together with the position and orientation information of ...

Vertical grid refinement for stratocumulus clouds in the radiation scheme of the global climate model ECHAM6.3-HAM2.3-P3 [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2021
In this study, we implement a vertical grid refinement scheme in the radiation routine of the global aerosol–climate model ECHAM-HAM, aiming to improve the representation of stratocumulus clouds and address the underestimation of their cloud cover.
