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).

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

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract The floods of 01 September 2009 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, were among the most severe in the Central Sahel's history, highlighting the region's persistent flood risk. This extreme precipitation event (EPE) was influenced by various atmospheric drivers, including Convectively Coupled Equatorial Waves (CCEWs).

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract Ammonia (NH3) is a short‐lived atmospheric pollutant with significant environmental and health impacts. Monitoring NH3 remains challenging, as diurnal variability at local scales is still poorly documented. In this study, we analyze two years (July 2022–June 2024) of NH3 total columns from the Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract Simultaneous observations of ultraviolet (337 nm) and near‐infrared (777 nm) lightning emissions provide insight into streamer and leader processes. However, coordinated ground‐based measurements of these bands during return strokes remain scarce.

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).

Diurnal evolution of cloud base heights in convective cloud fields from MSG/SEVIRI data [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009 This study shows that it is possible to retrieve the temporal evolution of cloud base heights in convective broken cloud fields from data of the SEVIRI instrument onboard the geostationary satellite Meteosat-9.
