Automatic Identification Systems tracking vessel location and characteristics in real-time for traffic density analysis.

Used optical instruments with lasers to measure size and fall speed of precipitation particles including raindrops, snowflakes, and hail.

CLAMPS2 Halo Streamline XR+ Doppler lidar directs beam to zenith for measurement of vertical velocity with range-resolved measurements of radial velocity, intensity and attenuated backscatter.

Instrument responsivity calibrations performed using laboratory lamp calibrations for the MFRSR and in-field side-by-side calibration for the MFR.

Upward-facing MFRSR measures downwelling irradiance through sequential observations reconstructed from irradiances during various shadowband positions.

Composite gridded-image derived from 8-km resolution SST observations collected by AVHRR and HIRS instruments onboard NOAA and Metop-A satellites, generated every 48 hours for North America at 14 km r...

Marine scientists assign flags to data sets and WOCE flags of 2 (good), 3 (questionable) or 4 (bad) to individual fCO2 values during secondary quality control.
