| 内容記述 | The advantages of the use of cluster analysis in the improvement of satellite temperature retrievals were evaluated since the use of natural clusters, which are associated with atmospheric temperature soundings characteristic of different types of air masses, has the potential for improving stratified regression schemes in comparison with currently used methods which stratify soundings based on latitude, season, and land/ocean. The method of discriminatory analysis was used. The correct cluster of temperature profiles from satellite measurements was located in 85% of the cases. Considerable improvement was observed at all mandatory levels using regression retrievals derived in the clusters of temperature (weighted and nonweighted) in comparison with the control experiment and with the regression retrievals derived in the clusters of brightness temperatures of 3 MSU and 5 IR channels. |
