GOES Sounder Retrieval Comparison for Moisture Structure Analysis

Explore and compare GOES Sounder retrieval versions to analyze vertical moisture structure using derived imagery and profiles. Seek accurate lower and upper moisture structure from Ma (1999) and Li (2008) versions. Estimate upper or lower layer moisture with GOES Sounder TPW DPI, shown with/without clouds on 21 Sep 2009 at 2346 UT. Delve into distinguishing between upper and lower layer moisture with focus on Ma (1999) vs. Li (2008) versions.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Web page for comparing GOES Sounder retrieval versions Derived imagery and Vertical profiles

  2. Seeking correct lower and upper moisture structure from GOES Sounder profiles Ma(1999) version -- TPW at 2346 UT on 21 Sep 2009 -- Li(2008) version ( beyond just correct integrated total precipitable water [TPW] )

  3. GOES Sounder TPW DPI – two versions, with and without cloud shown [Ma(1999)] [Li(2008)] 21 Sep 2009 2346 UT

  4. Estimating either upper or lower layer moisture (but not both?) ? ? vs guess Li(2008) version Ma(1999) version Good upper layer vs raob Good lower layer
