4 Executive Summary  The ABI SO 2 detection algorithm produces a yes/no SO 2 flag  Software Version 4 was delivered in January (2011). The CUTR was completed in January (2011). ATBD (100%) and test datasets are scheduled to be delivered in June (2011).  The SO 2 detection algorithm utilizes spectral and spatial information to identify SO 2 clouds. Only infrared measurements are used, so the algorithm methodology is day/night consistent.  Validation Datasets: Hyperspectral ultra-violet based retrievals of SO 2 total column loading from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI).  Validation studies indicate that the SO 2 loading algorithm is meeting the 100% accuracy specification.

5 Algorithm Description

6 Algorithm Summary  Input Datasets: 1). ABI channels 8, 10, 11, 14, and 15, 2). Satellite viewing angle, 3). Clear sky radiances and transmittances, 4). Cloud frequency of occurrence LUT  -ratios are calculated to help identify cloud microphysical “anomalies” possibly associated with SO 2 absorption.  Cloud objects are constructed from potential SO 2 pixels.  Spectral and spatial cloud object statistics are used to determine if all of the pixels that compose a cloud object contain SO 2 or do not contain SO 2.  A flag indicating the approximate SO 2 loading is also produced and stored in the quality flags.

7 Algorithm Channel Selection ABI channel 11 coverage ABI channel 10 coverage The ABI algorithm utilizes SO 2 absorption lines located in the channel 10 (7.3  m) and channel 11 (8.5  m) bands in combination with the lack of SO 2 absorption in the 6.2, 11, and 12  m bands to detect SO 2 induced spectral anomalies.

8 Spectral Information As in Pavolonis (2010), effective absorption optical depth ratios (  - ratios) are used to infer cloud microphysical information. Cloud microphysical anomalies (large deviations from theoretical values) are then used to identify potential SO 2 contaminated pixels. Spectral ratio of effective absorption optical depth Spectral ratio of scaled extinction coefficients This relationship provides a direct link to theoretical size distributions from the measurements

9 Spectral Information Compare the spectral signature of an SO 2 cloud, an ice cloud,and a liquid water cloud. Water Cloud Ice Cloud SO 2 Cloud

10 Spectral Information The SO 2 cloud is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of large  (12, 11) and large  (8.5, 11). Ice clouds tend to have smaller  (8.5, 11) relative to SO 2 clouds. SO 2 clouds tend to have larger  (12, 11) relative to liquid water clouds when hydrometeors are co- located with the SO 2. SO 2 Liquid Water Ice  (8.5, 11),  (12, 11) SO 2 spectral signature

11 Spectral Information The SO 2 cloud is characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of large  (7.3, 11) and large  (8.5, 11). Ice clouds tend to have smaller  (8.5, 11) and  (7.3, 11) relative to SO 2 clouds. Liquid water clouds are often present well below the peak of the 7.3  m weighting function, and hence does not noticeably impact the 7.3  m radiance. SO 2 Liquid Water Ice  (8.5, 11),  (7.3, 11) SO 2 spectral signature

12 SO 2 Detection Processing Schematic Compute cloud emissivities and  - ratios INPUT: ABI and ancillary data Determine which pixels meet cloud object membership criteria Construct cloud objects and compute cloud object statistics Determine which cloud objects are SO 2 clouds Output SO 2 mask

14 Example Output Grimsvotn, May 22, :00 UTC GOES-R SO 2 Product OMI SO 2 Product Iceland The GOES-R and OMI products are in good agreement (more on this later)

15 Algorithm Changes from 80% to 100%  Improved SO 2 detection in the absence of a strong 7.3 μm signal (8.5 μm signal only).  Improved SO 2 detection when SO 2 overlaps or is mixed with thick ice cloud (more work is still needed though)  Metadata output added  Quality flags standardized

16 ADEB and IV&V Response Summary  All ATBD errors and clarification requests have been addressed.  No substantive modifications to the approach were required.

18 Validation Approach

19 Validation Approach OMI is a Dutch-Finnish instrument on board the Aura satellite in NASA’s A-Train. OMI uses measurements of backscattered solar UV radiation to detect SO 2. OMI can detect SO 2 at levels less than 1 DU. Although OMI is very sensitive to SO 2, it only views a given area of earth once daily. The MODIS instrument on the Aqua satellite (also in the A-Train) observes the same area as OMI, which allows us to study any SO 2 clouds observed by OMI. The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) is used as “truth” The ABI SO 2 mask is validated as a function of OMI SO 2 loading

20 Validation Approach  OMI SO 2 Quality Flag (QF) from the OMI data set is used to filter out poor quality SO 2 loading retrievals Before filteringAfter filtering Spurious data

Validation Approach 21 The OMI SO 2 loading product and the GOES-R proxy data (MODIS or SEVIRI) are matched up in time and re-mapped to the same grid to allow for quantitative comparisons.

22 Validation Results

23 SO 2 Validation The ABI SO 2 mask is validated as a function of OMI SO 2 loading. Only scenes that contained SO 2 clouds were used so this analysis reflects how the algorithm will perform in relevant situations The accuracy is 79% when the OMI SO 2 indicates 10 DU or more of SO 2. Accuracy Accuracy Requirement

24 SO 2 Validation While not required the true skill score was also evaluated. The true skill score is 0.59 when the OMI SO 2 indicates 10 DU or more of SO 2. The true skill score is 0.70 when the OMI SO 2 indicates 14 DU or more of SO 2. True Skill Score

25 F&PS requirements – SO 2 F&PS requirement: Product Measurement Range F&PS requirement: Product Measurement Accuracy Validation results Binary yes/no detection from 10 to 700 Dobson Units (DU) 70% correct detection 79% correct detection when loading is 10 DU or greater (0.70 true skill score when loading is 14 DU or greater) 25

26 Summary  The ABI SO 2 Detection algorithm provides a new capability to objectively detect SO 2 clouds, which may be an aviation hazard and impact climate.  The GOES-R AWG SO 2 algorithm meets all performance and latency requirements.  The improved spatial and temporal resolution of the ABI, along with a 7.3 um band that is better suited for SO 2 detection, will likely lead to improved SO 2 detection capabilities (relative to SEVIRI and MODIS).  The 100% ATBD and code will be delivered to the AIT this summer.  Prospects for future improvement: 1). Express results as a probability, not a mask. 2). Correct for high level ice and ash clouds using bands not sensitive to SO 2 3). Improve quantitative estimates of SO 2 loading and possibly height
