To decode this type of data group, the reverse must be accomplished. For example, when the data appears as “731960,” subtract 50 from the 73 and add 100 to the 19, and the wind would be 230° at 119 knots with a temperature of –60 °C. If the wind speed is forecast to be 200 knots or greater, the wind group is coded as 99 knots. For ...
MIGHTI was designed to detect wind speeds as low as 16 km/h (9.9 mph), even though the spacecraft was traveling at over 23,000 km/h (14,000 mph) (to stay in orbit). [19] IVM collected in situ data about ions in the local environment around the spacecraft, whereas EUV and FUV were spectrographic imagers. EUV was a 1-dimension limb imager ...
Giovanni is a Web interface that allows users to analyze NASA's gridded data from various satellite and surface observations.. Giovanni lets researchers examine data on atmospheric chemistry, atmospheric temperature, water vapor and clouds, atmospheric aerosols, precipitation, and ocean chlorophyll and surface temperature.
A wind atlas contains data on the wind speed and wind direction in a region. [1] These data include maps , but also time series or frequency distributions . A climatological wind atlas covers hourly averages at a standard height (10 meters) over even longer periods (30 years) but depending on the application there are variations in averaging ...
The latest release of the Global Wind Atlas (3.0) was launched on October 25, 2019, featuring further methodological modeling improvements, all new raw data (based on 10 years of mesoscale time-series model simulations), data coverage spanning 200 kilometers offshore, two additional heights (data now at 10, 50, 100, 150 and 200 m above ground ...
An example meteogram showing plots of temperature, pressure, precipitation, cloud cover, wind speed and wind direction. A meteogram, also known as a meteorogram, [1] is a graphical presentation of one or more meteorological variables with respect to time, whether observed or forecast, for a particular location. [2]
NASA renamed the spacecraft Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) in 2003 in an attempt to regain support for the project, [3] but the mission was formally terminated by NASA in 2005. [ 11 ] In November 2008, funded by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Air Force , the spacecraft was removed from storage and ...
Highest dew point temperature: A dew point of 35 °C (95 °F) — while the temperature was 42 °C (108 °F) — was observed at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, at 3:00 p.m. on 8 July 2003. [ 199 ] Highest heat index : In the observation above at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, the heat index ("feels like" temperature) was 81.1 °C (178.0 °F).
