| 内容記述 | AIRS (Atmospheric Infra Red Sounder) is the first of a series of next generation high spectral resolution infrared sounders which will fly on satellite missions in the next decade. AIRS is a 2368 channel grating spectrometer, with spectral resolving power of roughly upsilon /Delta(upsilon) = 1200, which will fly on the EOS Aqua platform in December 2000 accompanied by AMSU A and HSB, which is similar to AMSU B. New methodology has been developed by the AIRS Science Team to analyze AIRS/AMSU/HSB data in the presence of multilayer broken clouds. The baseline AIRS/AMSU products include surface skin temperature, surface spectral emissivity, atmospheric temperature-moisture-ozone profiles and cloud heights and amounts. Research products include CO and CH4 profiles, total CO2 burden, and OLR. This methodology will be briefly described and results will be shown of AIRS Science Team simulations, based on one day of simulated global data.. RMS errors of atmospheric temperature profiles are expected to be better than 1 K for 1 km layer mean temperatures in up to 80% multilayer fractional cloud cover and RMS errors for moisture profiles are better than 15% for 2 km layers throughout the troposphere. |
