High Resolution 3D Mapping of Hurricane Flooding from Moderate-Resolution Operational Satellites
Floods are often associated with hurricanes making landfall. When tropical cyclones/hurricanes make landfall, they are usually accompanied by heavy rainfall and storm surges that inundate coastal areas. The worst natural disaster in the United States, in

JPSS-1 VIIRS pre-launch radiometric performance [PDF]
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on-board the first Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) completed its sensor level testing on December 2014. The JPSS-1 (J1) mission is scheduled to launch in December 2016, and will be very similar to the Suomi-National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) mission.

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