  14. Integrated Cal/Val System: Completion Schedule

  15. An automated integrated cal/val system is critical to improving accuracy of both existing and future weather and climate products for POES, NPP/NPOESS, and GOES-R. Summary The system architecture components:> Satellite position prediction and data scheduling; > Easy access to Level 1b and cal/val site data; > Up-to-date computing resources and shared mass data storage; > High-quality, well-documented calibration analysis software and RTM’s; and > Web user interface to near real-time data. Prototypes of portions of this cal/val system are up and running NOW.

  17. Outline SNO-ensemble avg. biases between Aqua and POES AMSU-A instruments at sounding channels (Chs 3-14) Predicted and observed SNO-ensemble avg. biases between POES AMSU-A instruments at sounding channels SNO-ensemble biases inferred for AMSU-A1-2 and AMSU-A1-1 subunits on POES and Aqua. SNO analysis at AMSU-A surface channels

  18. SNO Events Between Concurrently Operating AMSU-A Instruments Time Period: May 21, 2005 to July 31, 2006 Locations: Mainly Around 800 North and South SNO Time Threshold: 30 Seconds Number of SNOs:

  19. Individual SNO Mean Bias Time Series for Aqua and N15 AMSU-A

  20. POES and Aqua AMSU-A SNO-ensemble Mean Biases and 99% Confidence Intervals

  21. Observed and Predicted AMSU-A SNO biases using Aqua/AMSU-A as a Calibration Transfer Radiometer

  22. Channel aggregated SNO biases for AMSU-A1-1 and AMSU-A1-2 subunits

  23. Uncertainties for Surface Channels Percentage of SNO Bias Variance due to NEDT

  24. Reducing the SNO bias uncertainty for the surface channels: Data interpolation and QC Collocation schemes : 1) No Interpolation (simple nearest neighbor matching), 2) Bilinear Interpolation, and 3) Bilinear Interpolation with Quality Control (based on maximum gradient value). SNO-ensemble statistics were computed from SNO events between N18 and EOS-Aqua AMSU-A instruments for the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
