| 内容記述 | An early January 1980 synoptic situation was used in evaluating the performance of TIROS-N and NOAA-6 operational temperature soundings. Visual and statistical comparisons of temperature and thickness fields were employed to determine the effects of manual screening of the satellite soundings and measure the accuracy of both the satellite soundings and analyses derived from them. Comparisons between the performance of TIROS-N and NOAA-6 were emphasized. Both satellites were able to correctly position the major troughs and ridges. Gradients were underestimated though, with troughs markedly too warm and ridges slightly too cold. The poorest data occurred near the surface and tropopause as reflected by larger standard deviations in those layers. The performance of TIROS-N was slightly superior to that of NOAA-6. |
