Anomaly Correlations computed from 90S to 90N Control AIRS - - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Anomaly Correlations computed from 90S to 90N Control AIRS clear-sky radiances AIRS cloudy retrievals USED REJECTED There are simply NO DATA accepted by the DAS in the area where NARGIS developes, because the measurements are in cloudy areas.

AIRS RET improves location and intensity also at subsequent times; FORECASTS from the improved analyses are much superior.

Radiances Very weak System, low Vorticity Retrievals Much higher (100%) Vorticity Retrievals: Realistic 2-band structure comparing well with satellite Radiances: very poor structure: Two unconnected convective systems without a deep circulation
