Polar mesospheric clouds observed by Himawari-8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Abstract. We make an initial report on polar mesospheric clouds (PMCs) observed by Himawari-8, the Japanese Geostationary-Earth-Orbit (GEO) meteorological satellite. Heights of the observed PMCs were estimated to be 80–82 km. The PMCs were active only during summertime in both the northern and southern polar regions.

Himawari-8 Atmospheric Motion Vectors - Operational Generation and Assimilation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Southern Hemisphere Earth Systems Science, 2017
In October 2014 the Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA) launched the new generation geostationary satellite Himawari-8. This satellite provides ten minute imagery in sixteen wavebands over the Asian and Australasian region. The imagery has been navigated, calibrated and subsequently used in the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) to generate Atmospheric ...

Deriving Hourly PM2.5 Concentrations from Himawari-8 AODs over Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei in China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
Monitoring fine particulate matter with diameters of less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5) is a critical endeavor in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) region, which is one of the most polluted areas in China. Polar orbit satellites are limited by observation frequency,

Moisture and wind effects of Rossby waves on Western Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone breakdown events

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
(a) Organized convection: clouds are clustered at the southern edge of the domain, aligning with the warmest SST. Northeasterly winds prevail, facilitating convection confinement to the southern part of the domain. (b) ITCZ breakdown: the clouds are spread throughout the domain.

Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Evaluating Satellite Monitoring of Vegetation Health With Fauna Habitat Managers in Mind

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In Australia, pastoralists, not‐for‐profit, and government organisations are managing stands of open woodland to conserve threatened species' habitats. These land areas are usually larger than a cropping field but smaller than many National Parks in Australia.
