Scatterometer Monitoring - December 2011

Density Map Vector Node Hovmoeller

Wind Vector Cell Statistics Plots

As WindSat is not a scatterometer we instead plot statistics versus integrated cloud liquid water (CLW) retrievals.

  • Scatterometer statistics binned by WVC
  • WindSat statistics binned by CLW (0.01 mm)
  • Bars are shaded according to the number of observations in each bin

For details on the data shown in these plots see the monthly monitoring index page.

The KNMI/OSI SAF Oceansat-2 wind product currently has an 'in development' status and is based on the level 2A backscatter data made available by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The processing software for the KNMI wind product is being developed within the framework of the NWP SAF sponsored by EUMETSAT.

WindSat data is produced at the Naval Research Laboratory.
