Examples in Context

  1. OPE also underestimates the long - wave radiative cooling and the outgoing long - wave radiation at the top of atmosphere ( OLR ).
  2. Since dust aerosols have strong scattering, more shortwave radiation are reflected into space, so they have more significant forcing effects in the top of atmosphere.
  3. The Rayleigh-Corrected top of atmosphere ( TOA ) signals are modeled from in situ Rrs and a simplified, moderate accuracy aerosol model to set up NN models for aerosol parameters retrieval, which is then used to derive water-leaving signals.
  4. The FLA ASH module is used to perform the atmospheric correction of the Hyperion hyperspectral imagery, which changes the top of atmosphere radiance spectrum to sea surface reflectance spectrum.
  5. The seasonal cycle of the net radiation heating at the top of atmosphere and its relationship with the Asian summer monsoon
