remote sensing
The TIROS-N Operational Vertical Sounder (TOVS) measures radiances. Since all these satellites are polar orbiters, there may be gaps in data on any given day. TOMS A TOMS instrument was ... are best when collected under cloudless conditions. The NOAA satellite that carries TOVS is a polar orbiter that passes close enough to the poles to give continuous data. You can view ...

Cloud Systems and Rainfall Amounts These are monitored by Polar orbiters (NOAA) and geostationary (GOES) satellites. Visual and infrared channels on these satellites allow type ... These are measured by the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on NOAA polar orbiters. They determine temperatures by sensing infrared radiation coming from the sea surface. Current ...

FMI - Weather and Climate - Rain and cloudiness - Info on satellites
Geostationary satellites have low spatial resolution especially at high latitudes, but data is obtained regularly. Polar orbiters do not always fly exactly over the same regions. Therefore their data is obtained ... satellite images The images on our web site are produced from the geostationary Meteosat and polar orbiting NOAA satellites' data. In the images, the infrared channel is used and the ...

Water in the Solar System
If the water locked up in polar ice were to completely melt, the oceans would rise about ... moons circling Jupiter. Water on Mars? In the 1970s, three Mars orbiters sent back images that revealed landscape shapes apparently formed by ... at lower latitudes. The seasonal changes in the extent of the polar caps change the global atmospheric pressure by about 25% (as ...
