There are
other satellite analyses that have found different numbers but I've not had a chance to look into that recently at all...
Not exact matches
Case studies under
analysis from this theoretical perspective include: direct broadcast
satellite development; teleconferencing for meetings; international negotiations for
satellite use by many nations; the cooperative communications efforts among European Community nations; and
others.
Now,
analyses of data gathered in 2006 by two
satellites — one carrying a down - gazing camera and the
other a gamma ray detector — as well as a ground - based lightning detector in North Carolina, reveal that these flashes start out, as does most lightning, as a small channel of charged particles within the storm cloud (golden zigzag line, left; lightning - generated radio waves are depicted as concentric rings).
Olson says Gray himself had worked on methods to calculate wind and drift direction from buoys and
other sensor data: «He collaborated with people on
satellite image data capture and
analysis and sea surface data capture and
analysis, and these people now are using their professional skills in the search.»
The project was funded, through a competitive grant process, by the USIP, which convened the meeting, where Wolfinbarger and her colleagues shared lessons learned from their case studies, and announced a new website that will feature a «practitioners» guide» for
other researchers who want to leverage
satellite - image
analysis.
The brightening trend is corroborated by
other data, including
satellite analyses
Further, NCEI's ocean surface temperature
analysis disagrees substantially with NOAA's
other SST data set (OISST), using
satellite data and the buoys.
But
others are vast, sporting firefronts 20 - 25 miles wide and revealing individual burn scars that, according to unconfirmed
satellite analysis, appear to cover as much as 400 square miles of land.
Detailed
analyses of publicly available
satellite photos show that Brazil has reduced deforestation in the Amazon enough over the past five years to lower heat - trapping emissions more than any
other country on Earth.
SLR
satellite data includes things such as the «GIA Adjustment» — which is the amount of SLR that there would have been if the ocean basin hadn't increased in volume and in the case of this new study, how much higher the sea surface would have been if it had not been suppressed by the Mount Pinatubo volcanic eruption, another correction for ENSO / PDO «computed via a joint cyclostationary empirical orthogonal function (CSEOF)
analysis of altimeter GMSL, GRACE land water storage, and Argo - based thermosteric sea level from 2005 to present», as well as
other additions and adjustments — NONE OF WHICH can actually be found manifested in any change to the physical Sea Surface Height.»
In addition to the
satellite calibration error, his
analysis also takes into account
other factors that have influenced sea - level rise in the last several decades, such as the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991 and the recent El Niño weather pattern.
«In addition to
satellite and airborne data collection and
analysis, NASA scientists participate in field work to collect ice cores and
other related data, such as ground penetrating radar,» Casey said.
We repeat the
analysis for the NCEP and
satellite epochs to establish that the approach is robust for datasets of different lengths, and we examine the evolution of decadal power in the natural influences to assess their projections onto each
other as sources of error in prior results.
Given that the radiation reaches the
satellite sensors having travelled through a warming lower atmosphere and cooling stratosphere, that bias exists between the various sensors, issues with orbital decay, and a host of
other obstacles, there's a lot of careful and painstaking
analysis required, and much that can go wrong.
