HIRS Calibration: Developing HIRS adjusted spectral response functions (ASRFs) for satellites NOAA 6, 7 and 8

Calibration methods such as double differencing, global mean and SNO are used process radiance data over land/ocean sites and those from GOES 6, to calculate inter-satellite bias for HIRS channel 4,5,7 of NOAA -6, -7,-8 and -9.

The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) Sensor Data Record (SDR) Calibration and Validation

CICS Scientist Chunhui Pan has developed new comprehensive data analysis algorithms to evaluate entire sensor orbital performance in accordance to the NASA newly established calibration measurement sequences. The algorithms have been used by me to have performed sensor end-to-end data analysis to evaluate sensor orbital performance and calibration results, as well as to validate SDR products. Sensor anomalies are identified based on my results and solutions were proposed. I presented a comprehensive sensor performance review to the JPSS program in SNPP Products Review on Dec. 19, 2014.

Student Support for CPC: Interpretation of Real-Time Weather and Climate Data for Spherical Displays

This year, graduate student Katherine Lukens, under the advisement of Dr. E. Hugo Berbery, focused on ascertaining the characteristics and behaviors of seasonal storm over North America for her PhD thesis on “The interconnectivity of extreme precipitation events, storm tracks, and modes of variability via the applications of large-scale global climate dynamics.”
