ARM Radiosondes for NPOESS/NPP Validation - ENA
1 February 2015 - 31 December 2017
Lead Scientist: Lori Borg
Observatory: ENA
This is a satellite validation project involving the use of satellite overpass coincident radiosonde launches. This is analogous to previous IOPs performed for AIRS on the NASA Aqua platform and IASI on the METOP-A platform. This IOP project will implore those same data collection concepts and analysis techniques for the validation of CrIMSS and VIIRS products from the upcoming NPP and NPOESS satellite platforms.Co-Investigators
