An Investigation Of Cloud Processes Relevant To Climate Sensitivity
Based on the Fourth Assessment Report of the IPCC, cloud feedbacks are the largest source of uncertainty in predicting the Earth's climate response to CO2 radiative forcing. Various global climate models estimate that this response amplifies the initial CO2 forcing by a factor between 2 and 5. The …

Remote Sensing of Hydrocarbon-induced Rock Alterations at Cement Field, Oklahoma
This study uses satellite- and ground-based remote sensing techniques to detect hydrocarbon-induced rock alterations at the Cement oil field, Oklahoma. Hydrocarbon seepage is the escape of oil and gas from petroleum reservoirs and their upward-migration to the surface. These hydrocarbons at the …

Infrared spectroscopy of volcanic gases at Masaya, Nicaragua
… plume composition was investigated using the new ground-based remote sensing technique of open-path Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. This technique meets criteria for safe and accurate quantitative characterisation of volcanic gases and on a temporal resolution previously impracticable. …

A Scanning Bi-static SODAR
Ground based remote sensing is an attractive form of providing wind data for the growing field of wind energy. The commonly used mono-static SODARs and LIDARs rely on a horizontally homogeneous wind field to accurately measure wind speeds. Bi-static SODARs present a promising alternative instrument …

On the Improvements of Boundary-Layer Representation for High Resolution Weather Forecasting in Costal-Urban Environments
… insights for operational weather forecasting. Ground-based remote sensing is thus used to determine PBL structure over high-density New York City for a summer and winter season to provide insights for a modeling effort. The modeling focused on the evaluation of the performance of the Weather …
