Diurnal Air–Surface Temperature Dynamics in Hong Kong: An Analysis Across Land Use and Climate Zones
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 6, May 2026.Daytime and nighttime air temperature (T a) from automatic weather stations and land surface temperature (T s) derived from ASTER and Landsat 8–9 are used to examine the relationship between T a and T s. The spatial and statistical characteristics of T a − T s dynamics are further analysed across land use (LU) and local climate zones (LCZ).

A WRF Simulation of an Episode of Contrails Covering the Entire Sky
Atmosphere, 2016 On 21 September 2012 the entire sky was covered by contrails over the Gulf of Lyon (NW of the Mediterranean basin). These clouds were well recorded by ground observers as well as by Meteosat imagery.

African and Atlantic short-term climatic variations described from Meteosat water vapor channel [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 1995 Pluriannual series of Meteosat-2 water vapor (WV) images are used to build average maps of decadal and monthly brightness temperatures in the 6.3 µm channel. This processing is applied to all the 3-hourly scenes, clear or cloudy, for July 1983 to July

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 6, May 2026.Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Determination of circumsolar radiation from Meteosat Second Generation [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2014 Reliable data on circumsolar radiation, which is caused by scattering of sunlight by cloud or aerosol particles, is becoming more and more important for the resource assessment and design of concentrating solar technologies (CSTs).

Beyond the Mean: The Mesoscale Cloud Patterns of the Atlantic Intertropical Convergence Zone
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract The organization of clouds in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) varies markedly from day‐to‐day. To investigate how different mesoscale cloud patterns relate to the mean properties of the ITCZ, this study identifies and classifies recurrent patterns and examines their spatial and temporal distributions.

Anomalous Opaque Clouds Revealed by Collocated MODIS and CALIOP Retrievals
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract This paper examines discrepancies between cloud optical thickness (COT) retrievals from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud product, and cloud opacity measurements from the Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) lidar.

Phenology Estimation From Meteosat Second Generation Data
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2012 Many studies have focused on land surface phenology, for example as a means to characterize both water and carbon cycles for climate model inputs. However, the Spinning Enhanced Visible Infra-Red Imager (SEVIRI) sensor onboard Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) geostationary satellite has never been used for this goal. Here, five years of MSG-SEVIRI data
