Antennas for Meteosat satellites [PDF]

2010 20th International Crimean Conference "Microwave & Telecommunication Technology", 2010
The paper describes antenna activities for Meteosat program developed under ESA's technical management. The program started in the 70's and the first satellite was launched in 1977 with VLF, UHF, L- and S-band antennas. The operational Meteosat satellites carried UHF, L- and S-band antennas.

LSA SAF Meteosat FRP products – Part 1: Algorithms, product contents, and analysis [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Characterizing changes in landscape fire activity at better than hourly temporal resolution is achievable using thermal observations of actively burning fires made from geostationary Earth Observation (EO) satellites.

Sunshine duration climate maps of Belgium and Luxembourg based on Meteosat and in-situ observations [PDF]

Advances in Science and Research, 2013
Sunshine duration was historically the traditional parameter to quantify solar radiation. In the present study, we propose to benefit from the measurements made with Campbell-Stokes recorders at 18 sites in Belgium and Luxembourg to generate maps of ...

Spatiotemporal Downscaling and Nowcasting of Urban Land Surface Temperatures With Deep Neural Networks

IEEE Access
Land Surface Temperature (LST) is a key variable for various applications, such as urban climate and ecology studies. Yet, existing satellite-derived LST products provide either high spatial or high temporal resolution, resulting in a fundamental trade ...

Erkennung und Vorhersage von Hagel mit Meteosat-Daten

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 1995
Das Ziel dieser Untersuchung ist die Erkennung und Vorhersage von Hagel mit Hilfe von Meteosat-Daten. Als Meteosat-Daten werden routinemäßig erhobene Satellitenbilder im sichtbaren und infraroten Bereich verwendet. Hagel wird als solcher definiert, falls

Coupled observation‐operator approximations in outer‐loop coupling data assimilation

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We present a methodology for coupled variational data assimilation that allows the effect of coupled observation operators whilst maintaining separate minimisations across model components. This allows us to constrain the atmosphere, ocean, and sea‐ice components of our coupled model directly from satellite radiances. We illustrate the system in action

The In-Orbit Performance of SEVIRI From Observations of Mercury and Venus

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
We investigated various aspects of the in-orbit performance of a Spinning Enhanced Visible Infra-Red Imager (SEVIRI) on Meteosat-10 (launch: 05 Jul 2012) and -11 (launch: 15 Jul 2015) with images, where Mercury or Venus stood close to earth.

The benefit of neighborhood methods for the assimilation of cloud‐affected radiances evaluated in observing‐system simulation experiments

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Neighborhood methods are commonly used in verification to avoid the double‐penalty issue. This study evaluates such methods for the assimilation of infrared and visible satellite observations and extends them to multiscale assimilation. Moreover, a novel technique is tested aimed at mitigating complex biases and structural errors in real‐world model ...

Validation of downward surface radiation derived from MSG data by in-situ observations over the Atlantic ocean

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2010
The present work investigates the quality of the shortwave and and longwave downward radiation (DSR, DLR) at the sea surface over the Atlantic Ocean as retrieved from Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) measurements and EUMETSAT's Climate Monitoring ...
