Sentences with phrase «match radiosonde»

Up until now, S&C were able to closely match radiosonde measurements.
Similarly, do the trends in the new UAH data still match the radiosonde data, or is that not yet analysed?
Christy claims the results he and Spencer have match radiosonde readings better (see his comments in the link of # 4 above).
These problems are sufficiently serious that the US National Weather Service (NESDIS) adjusts satellite data every week to match radiosondes, in effect relying upon radiosondes as a reference instrument.
Note how the three that do match the radiosondes for the hot spot, don't match in the stratosphere.
In those three graphs you think match the radiosondes — all of them fail in the stratosphere.

Not exact matches

Since the UAH team have acknowledged the error in their analysis, the apparent match to the radiosondes now seems to have been fortuitous.
At monthly timescales (which should not be affected by trends in the model or possible drifts or calibration problems in the satellites or radiosondes) there is a very good match.
One additional piece of evidence that has been discussed frequently was the claim that the trends in UAH MSU 2LT closely matched those of the radiosonde (balloon) network (Christy et al, 2003).
To reduce the variability and bias introduced into the QME AERI / LBLRTM radiance residuals, the moisture profiles from each radiosonde are scaled such that its total precipitable water vapor matches that retrieved from the microwave radiometer (MWR), and these scaled profiles are used to drive the model.
They have gone through a number of types of radiosondes and the satellite data would indicate the measurement change with the new device since the new radiosondes wouldn't match the satellite data and the old radiosondes would This is the same problem — mandatory objective environmental test standards would give historic continuity.
Data assembled from radiosonde balloon records12 is a pretty fair match with HadCRUT34, GHCN - ERSST8 and HadCRUT2v9, suggesting independent corroboration via alternative methodology.
Although modern remote sensing by satellites, aircraft and ground sensors is an increasing source of atmospheric data, none of these systems can match the vertical resolution (30 m (98 ft) or less) and altitude coverage (30 km (19 mi)-RRB- of radiosonde observations, so they remain essential to modern meteorology.
The Hadley radiosondes don't match the models, but it's hidden by clutter in their graphs.
As I keep repeating, the models don't match the observations, it's «an important problem» and they don't know why, could be the models, could be the radiosondes.
Mears and others said that the satellite measurements should not be taken seriously because they only infer the temperature from measurements of radio emissions by Oxygen molecules - AND - that these final numbers never match actual temperature measurements made over land and water (ground stations as well as radiosonde).
Using a longer period would made the match of surface and radiosonde observation to models much worst in the period before 1979.
Christy et al. (2007) find that the tropical temperature trends from radiosondes matches closest with his v5.2 UAH dataset.
My «Word matching» throws up the issue that the paper is only useful for «clear sky» applications, when M's calculation is based on «real sky» radiosonde observations and «real sky» observations from a high tower.
