Development of Independent Rejection Algorithm for Retrieval Quality Control at AIRS Science Team Meeting

This presentation discusses the objective of developing a rejection algorithm independent of forecast SST to improve retrieval quality control for outliers and cases where cloud clearing assumptions fail, specifically focusing on the night/descending orbit and well-known stratus contaminated areas. The algorithm aims to avoid using abs(SST-NCEP) < 3 and will be implemented in the next delivery to NOAA/NRT.

  2. Objective • Current rejection criteria leave many outliers • 10% overall • Unable to detect cases where cloud clearing assumptions fail • Night/Descending orbit has much more outliers • Mostly over well known stratus contaminated area • Impact above boundary layer seems small • Develop rejection algorithm independent of Forecast SST • Avoid using abs(SST-NCEP) < 3. • JPL members are studying post retrieval tests • To be implemented in the next delivery to NOAA/NRT • Early January implementation for February 2004 delievery
