Monochromatic measurements of the JPSS-1 VIIRS polarization sensitivity [PDF]

Applied Optics, 2016
Polarization sensitivity is a critical property that must be characterized for spaceborne remote sensing instruments designed to measure reflected solar radiation. Broadband testing of the first Joint Polar-orbiting Satellite System (JPSS-1) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) showed unexpectedly large polarization sensitivities for the ...

Application and Evaluation of a NOAA GFS-Driven Air Quality Model Using CMAQv5.4 and High-Resolution Emissions: FIREX-AQ 2019. [PDF]

J Geophys Res Atmos
Abstract The National Air Quality Forecast Capability (NAQFC) provides numerical forecasting guidance of air quality up to 72 hr ahead over the United States. In this study, we evaluate the changes in its prediction skills by updating the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system from version 5.3.1 to 5.4 and utilizing a high‐resolution 1‐

Characterizing Particulate Matter Impacts of Smoke From 2022 to 2023 Agricultural Burning in South Florida. [PDF]

Geohealth
Abstract Smoke from agricultural fires is a potentially important source of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the US. Sugarcane is burned in Florida to facilitate the harvesting process, with the majority of these fires occurring in the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA), where there is only one regulatory air quality monitor.

JPSS-1/NOAA-20 VIIRS early on-orbit geometric performance [PDF]

Earth Observing Systems XXIII, 2018
The first NOAA/NASA Join Polar Satellite System (JPSS-1) satellite was successfully launched on November 18, 2017,becoming NOAA-20. Instruments on-board the NOAA-20 satellite include the Visible Infrared Imaging RadiometerSuite (VIIRS). This instrument is the second build of VIIRS, with the first flight instrument on-board NASA/NOAASuomi National Polar-

Investigation on the physical mechanism of cavity percentage dependent shear strength for rock joints considering the real contact joint surface

Rock Mechanics Bulletin, 2023
To explain the effect of joint roughness on joint peak shear strength (JPSS) and investigate the effect of different contact states of joint surface on JPSS, we try to clarify the physical mechanism of the effect of joint cavity percentage (JCP) on JPSS ...

JPSS-1 VIIRS at-launch geometric performance [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2016
Following the successful operations of the first Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument on-board the Suomi National Polar‐orbiting Partnership (SNPP) spacecraft since launch in October 2011, a second VIIRS instrument to be on-board the first Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS-1) satellite has been fabricated, tested and integrated
