2 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier2 Outline Information: AMMA, Megha-Tropiques CERES, POLDER nadir comparison CERES, GERB flux comparison (January to March 2004) Monthly diurnal cycles from GERB

3 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier3 AMMA (1/3) African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analyses (http://medias.obs-mip.fr/amma/index.en.html)http://medias.obs-mip.fr/amma/index.en.html multidisciplinary project on the West African Monsoon and its impacts Atmospheric Dynamics, Continental Water Cycle, Atmospheric Chemistry, Oceanic and Continental Surface Conditions. Participation: France, Germany, UK, USA, Africa, … French Agencies: CNES, CNRS/INSU, IRD, and Meteo-France

4 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier4 AMMA (2/3) Long Term Observation Period : … 2009 Special Observing Period (SOP): various key stages of the rainy season during three periods in 2006: (i) monsoon onset, (ii) peak monsoon and (iii) late monsoon AMMA-SAT : the satellite data component of AMMA http://ammasat.lmd.polytechnique.fr/WelcomeE.html In this project : we promote CERES and GERB data and plan to incorporate their main parameters in the AMMA-SAT database

5 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier5 AMMA-SAT (3/3) - data-set with multiple satellite products and data - netcdf format with standard grid, organization and documentation (tools: ferret, live access server) GERB data in AMMA-SAT: - link to GERB archive system? - mirroring the GERB site? - hdf to netcdf transformation (of main parameters)? Amma-sat regions (globe for coarse grid)

6 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier6 ScaRaB-3 on - Tropiques (Megha-Tropiques) Joint project between France and India Stopped last year (CNES budget cuts) New green signal on 2004 End of B phase: 2004 Start of C phase: 2005 Planned to be launched on 2009

9 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier9 June 2003 – Reflectance vza<20° POLDER minus CERES grid box method (0.5°) (Reflectances multiplied by 100) Narrow-to-Broadband Conversion Validation with CERES.

10 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier10 POLDER-CERES along track and nearest ‘pixel’ method Collocated POLDER triplets and CERES data (  T < 5 mn  D <2km) for June 2003 (1, 4, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 24, 27, and 30 )

12 2004/11/10GIST 22, Brussels, LMD, M. Viollier12 GERB/CERES flux comparisons - GERB data: ex. G2_SEV1_L20S_20031223_130000_V002.hdf - CERES : ES8 - 3 periods: Jan 1-5, Feb 15-19, Mar 21-25 2004 - average data over 2.5 x 2.5° regions (and also 1° x 1°) - keep regions with more than 80 (CERES) and 20 (GERB) observations for 2.5 x 2.5° regions - compare GERB and CERES flux regional means, coincident ± 2 minutes (however, in the present version, we approximate UTC to the half quarter, i.e. 00:07:30, 00:22:30,.. )
