Howard University Beltsville Campus Ozonesonde Record: Data Homogenization and Uncertainties
Abstract Ensuring the quality and consistency of multidecadal electrochemical concentration cell (ECC) ozonesonde records is essential because changes in sonde instrumentation, sensing solutions, operating procedures, and data‐processing methods can introduce biases that compromise their suitability for trend analyses and model/satellite evaluation ...

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

Forecast verification using information and noise
Verification of weather forecasts is usually expressed in terms of total error metrics. This is useful for end users of the forecasts but does not allow evaluation of the intrinsic information content of the forecasts. To overcome this limitation, we propose a new total error decomposition into information and noise error measures, connect it to ...

Abstract We leverage global satellite observations of Peroxyacyl Nitrates (PANs) from the Cross‐track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) on the Suomi National Polar‐orbiting Partnership satellite to evaluate seasonal and interannual variations of intercontinental transport in the Northern Hemisphere between 2016 and 2022.

Abstract Current geostationary satellite imaging instruments such as the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) show poor skill in resolving low‐level moisture features. Adding radiance information from low‐earth‐orbiting hyperspectral sounders, such as the Cross‐track Infrared Sounder (CrIS), of five online water vapor rotational channels in the infrared (IR)

Abstract Southern California wildfires result in a significant loss for Los Angeles and San Diego County from January 7 to 31, 2025. Palisades Fire and Eaton fires, the two largest fires that caused most of that damage, were observed by the infrared sounder CrIS and microwave sounder ATMS aboard a polar‐orbit satellite of the National Oceanic and ...
