ID: snow-fraction

Global daily maps of snow fraction are produced from VIIRS data. At this time information on the presence/absence of snow in every VIIRS pixel (i.e., binary snow mask) is obtained from the IDPS Binary Snow Map product. Snow fraction is derived with a new (NDE) algorithm which estimates the area fraction of the pixel covered with snow. Within the NDE reflectance-based snow fraction algorithm the snow fraction is inferred from the the observed reflectance in the VIIRS visible band (I1). Snow fraction is assumed linearly related to the visible reflectance of the pixel. The NDE snow fraction approach is different from the one in the current IDPS algorithm where snow fraction is estimated through aggregation of the VIIRS binary snow map within 2x2 pixel blocks.

The 0.47 µm, or “Blue” visible band, is one of two visible bands on the ABI, and provides data for monitoring aerosols. Included on NASA’s MODIS and Suomi NPP VIIRS instruments, this band provides well-established benefits. The geostationary ABI 0.47 µm band will provide nearly continuous daytime observations of dust, haze, smoke and clouds. The 0.47 µm band is more sensitive to aerosols / dust / smoke because it samples a part of the electromagnetic spectrum where clear-sky atmospheric scattering is important

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND02

The ‘Red’ Visible band – 0.64 µm – has the finest spatial resolution (0.5 km at the subsatellite point) of all ABI bands. Thus it is ideal to identify small-scale features such as river fogs and fog/clear air boundaries, or overshooting tops or cumulus clouds. It has also been used to document daytime snow and ice cover, diagnose low-level cloud-drift winds, assist with detection of volcanic ash and analysis of hurricanes and winter storms. The ‘Red’ Visible band is also essential for creation of “true color” imagery.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND03

The 0.86 μm band (a reflective band) detects daytime clouds, fog, and aerosols and is used to compute the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Its nickname is the “veggie” or “vegetation” band. The 0.86 μm band can detect burn scars and thereby show land characteristics to determine fire and run-off potential. Vegetated land, in general, shows up brighter in this band than in visible bands. Landwater contrast is also large in this band.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND04

The Cirrus Band (1.37 µm) is unique among the reflective bands on the ABI in that it occupies a region of very strong absorption by water vapor in the electromagnetic spectrum. It will detect very thin cirrus clouds during the day.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND05

The Snow/Ice band takes advantage of the difference between the refraction components of water and ice at 1.61 µm. Liquid water clouds are bright in this channel; ice clouds are darker because ice absorbs (rather than reflects) radiation at 1.61 µm. Thus you can infer cloud phase. Fires can also be detected at night using this band.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND06

The 2.24 μm band, in conjunction with other bands, enables cloud particle size estimation. Cloud particle size changes can indicate cloud development. The 2.24 μm band is also used with other bands to estimate aerosol particle size (by characterizing the aerosol-free background over land), to create cloud masking and to detect hot spots.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND07

The 3.9 μm band can be used to identify fog and low clouds at night, identify fire hot spots, detect volcanic ash, estimate sea-surface temperatures, and discriminate between ice crystal sizes during the day. Low-level atmospheric vector winds can be estimated with this band, and the band can be used to study urban heat islands. The 3.9 μm is unique among ABI bands because it senses both emitted terrestrial radiation as well as significant reflected solar radiation during the day.

The 6.2 µm “Upper-level water vapor” band is one of three water vapor bands on the ABI, and is used for tracking upper-tropospheric winds, identifying jet streams, forecasting hurricane track and mid-latitude storm motion, monitoring severe weather potential, estimating upper/ mid-level moisture (for legacy vertical moisture profiles) and identifying regions where the potential for turbulence exists. Further, it can be used to validate numerical model initialization and warming/cooling with time can reveal vertical motions at mid- and upper levels.

The 6.9 µm “Mid-level water vapor” band is one of three water vapor bands on the ABI, and is used for tracking middle-tropospheric winds, identifying jet streams, forecasting hurricane track and mid-latitude storm motion, monitoring severe weather potential, estimating mid-level moisture (for legacy vertical moisture profiles) and identifying regions where turbulence might exist. Surface features are usually not apparent in this band. Brightness Temperatures show cooling because of absorption of energy at 6.9 µm by water vapor.

The 7.3 µm “Lower-level water vapor” band is one of three water vapor bands on the ABI. It typically senses farthest down into the midtroposphere in cloud-free regions, to around 500-750 hPa. It is used to track lowertropospheric winds, identify jet streaks, monitor severe weather potential, estimate lower-level moisture (for legacy vertical moisture profiles), identify regions where the potential for turbulence exists, highlight volcanic plumes that are rich in sulphur dioxide (SO2) and track LakeEffect snow bands.

The infrared 8.5 μm band is a window channel; there is little atmospheric absorption of energy in clear skies at this wavelength (unless SO2 from a volcanic eruption is present). However, knowledge of emissivity is important in the interpretation of this Band: Differences in surface emissivity at 8.5 μm occur over different soil types, affecting the perceived brightness temperature. Water droplets also have different emissivity properties for 8.5 μm radiation compared to other wavelengths. The 8.5 μm band was not available on either the Legacy GOES Imager or GOES Sounder.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND12

The 9.6 μm band gives information both day and night about the dynamics of the atmosphere near the tropopause. This band shows cooler temperatures than the clean window band because both ozone and water vapor absorb 9.6 μm atmospheric energy. The cooling effect is especially apparent at large zenith angles. This band alone cannot diagnose total column ozone: product generation using other bands will be necessary for that.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND13

The 10.3 μm “clean” infrared window band is less sensitive than other infrared window bands to water vapor absorption, and therefore improves atmospheric moisture corrections, aids in cloud and other atmospheric feature identification/classification, estimation of cloudtop brightness temperature and cloud particle size, and surface property characterization in derived products.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND14

The infrared 11.2 μm band is a window channel; however, there is absorption of energy by water vapor at this wavelength. Brightness Temperatures (BTs) are affected by this absorption, and 11.2 μm BTs will be cooler than clean window (10.3 μm) BTs – by an amount that is a function of the amount of moisture in the atmosphere. This band has similarities to the legacy infrared channel at 10.7 μm.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND15

Absorption and re-emission of water vapor, particularly in the lower troposphere, slightly cools most non-cloud brightness temperatures (BTs) in the 12.3 μm band compared to the other infrared window channels: the more water vapor, the greater the BT difference. The 12.3 μm band and the 10.3 μm are used to compute the ‘split window difference’. The 10.3 μm “Clean Window” channel is a better choice than the “Dirty Window” (12.3 μm) for the monitoring of simple atmospheric phenomena.

ID: G16-ABI-CONUS-BAND16

Products derived using the infrared 13.3 μm “Carbon Dioxide” band can be used to delineate the tropopause, to estimate cloudtop heights, to discern the level of Derived Motion Winds, to supplement Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) sky observations and to identify Volcanic Ash. The 13.3 μm band is vital for Baseline Products; that is demonstrated by its presence on heritage GOES Imagers and Sounders. Despite its importance in products, the CO2 channel is typically not used for visual interpretation of weather events.

True Color Imagery gives an image that is approximately as you would see it from Outer Space. With ABI, the challenge of creating True Color arises from the the lack of a Green Band. The CIMSS Natural True Color product, approximates the green by combining Blue (0.47 µm), Red (0.64 µm) and ‘Veggie’ (0.86 µm) bands. The use of the Veggie band is important because it mimics the enhanced reflectivity present in the Green Band.

Water droplets also have different emissivity properties for 8.5 μm radiation compared to other wavelengths. The 8.5 μm band was not available on either the Legacy GOES Imager or GOES Sounder.

The 9.6 μm band gives information both day and night about the dynamics of the atmosphere near the tropopause. This band shows cooler temperatures than the clean window band because both ozone and water vapor absorb 9.6 μm atmospheric energy. The cooling effect is especially apparent at large zenith angles. This band alone cannot diagnose total column ozone: product generation using other bands will be necessary for that.

The 10.3 μm “clean” infrared window band is less sensitive than other infrared window bands to water vapor absorption, and therefore improves atmospheric moisture corrections, aids in cloud and other atmospheric feature identification/classification, estimation of cloudtop brightness temperature and cloud particle size, and surface property characterization in derived products.

The infrared 11.2 μm band is a window channel; however, there is absorption of energy by water vapor at this wavelength. Brightness Temperatures (BTs) are affected by this absorption, and 11.2 μm BTs will be cooler than clean window (10.3 μm) BTs – by an amount that is a function of the amount of moisture in the atmosphere. This band has similarities to the legacy infrared channel at 10.7 μm.

ID: G16-ABI-FD-BAND15

Absorption and re-emission of water vapor, particularly in the lower troposphere, slightly cools most non-cloud brightness temperatures (BTs) in the 12.3 μm band compared to the other infrared window channels: the more water vapor, the greater the BT difference. The 12.3 μm band and the 10.3 μm are used to compute the ‘split window difference’. The 10.3 μm “Clean Window” channel is a better choice than the “Dirty Window” (12.3 μm) for the monitoring of simple atmospheric phenomena.

Products derived using the infrared 13.3 μm “Carbon Dioxide” band can be used to delineate the tropopause, to estimate cloudtop heights, to discern the level of Derived Motion Winds, to supplement Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) sky observations and to identify Volcanic Ash. The 13.3 μm band is vital for Baseline Products; that is demonstrated by its presence on heritage GOES Imagers and Sounders. Despite its importance in products, the CO2 channel is typically not used for visual interpretation of weather events.

True Color Imagery gives an image that is approximately as you would see it from Outer Space. With ABI, the challenge of creating True Color arises from the the lack of a Green Band. The CIMSS Natural True Color product, approximates the green by combining Blue (0.47 µm), Red (0.64 µm) and ‘Veggie’ (0.86 µm) bands. The use of the Veggie band is important because it mimics the enhanced reflectivity present in the Green Band.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND01

The 0.47 µm, or “Blue” visible band, is one of two visible bands on the ABI, and provides data for monitoring aerosols. Included on NASA’s MODIS and Suomi NPP VIIRS instruments, this band provides well-established benefits. The geostationary ABI 0.47 µm band will provide nearly continuous daytime observations of dust, haze, smoke and clouds. The 0.47 µm band is more sensitive to aerosols / dust / smoke because it samples a part of the electromagnetic spectrum where clear-sky atmospheric scattering is important.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND02

The ‘Red’ Visible band – 0.64 µm – has the finest spatial resolution (0.5 km at the subsatellite point) of all ABI bands. Thus it is ideal to identify small-scale features such as river fogs and fog/clear air boundaries, or overshooting tops or cumulus clouds. It has also been used to document daytime snow and ice cover, diagnose low-level cloud-drift winds, assist with detection of volcanic ash and analysis of hurricanes and winter storms. The ‘Red’ Visible band is also essential for creation of “true color” imagery.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND03

The 0.86 μm band (a reflective band) detects daytime clouds, fog, and aerosols and is used to compute the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Its nickname is the “veggie” or “vegetation” band. The 0.86 μm band can detect burn scars and thereby show land characteristics to determine fire and run-off potential. Vegetated land, in general, shows up brighter in this band than in visible bands. Landwater contrast is also large in this band.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND04

The Cirrus Band (1.37 µm) is unique among the reflective bands on the ABI in that it occupies a region of very strong absorption by water vapor in the electromagnetic spectrum. It will detect very thin cirrus clouds during the day.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND05

The Snow/Ice band takes advantage of the difference between the refraction components of water and ice at 1.61 µm. Liquid water clouds are bright in this channel; ice clouds are darker because ice absorbs (rather than reflects) radiation at 1.61 µm. Thus you can infer cloud phase. Fires can also be detected at night using this band.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND06

The 2.24 μm band, in conjunction with other bands, enables cloud particle size estimation. Cloud particle size changes can indicate cloud development. The 2.24 μm band is also used with other bands to estimate aerosol particle size (by characterizing the aerosol-free background over land), to create cloud masking and to detect hot spots.

ID: G16-ABI-MESO1-BAND07

The 3.9 μm band can be used to identify fog and low clouds at night, identify fire hot spots, detect volcanic ash, estimate sea-surface temperatures, and discriminate between ice crystal sizes during the day. Low-level atmospheric vector winds can be estimated with this band, and the band can be used to study urban heat islands. The 3.9 μm is unique among ABI bands because it senses both emitted terrestrial radiation as well as significant reflected solar radiation during the day.

The 6.2 µm “Upper-level water vapor” band is one of three water vapor bands on the ABI, and is used for tracking upper-tropospheric winds, identifying jet streams, forecasting hurricane track and mid-latitude storm motion, monitoring severe weather potential, estimating upper/ mid-level moisture (for legacy vertical moisture profiles) and identifying regions where the potential for turbulence exists. Further, it can be used to validate numerical model initialization and warming/cooling with time can reveal vertical motions at mid- and upper levels.

It is used to track lowertropospheric winds, identify jet streaks, monitor severe weather potential, estimate lower-level moisture (for legacy vertical moisture profiles), identify regions where the potential for turbulence exists, highlight volcanic plumes that are rich in sulphur dioxide (SO2) and track LakeEffect snow bands.

ConUS Infrared 1km (15 min, GEO) In the infrared (IR) channel, the satellite senses energy as heat. The earth’s surface absorbs about half of the incoming solar energy. Clouds and the atmosphere absorb a much smaller amount. The earth’s surface, clouds, and the atmosphere then re-emit part of this absorbed solar energy as heat. The infrared channel senses this re-emitted radiation. A major advantage of the IR channel is that it can sense energy at night, so this imagery is available 24 hours a day. This is a disadvantage of the visible channel, which requires daylight and cannot "see" after dark.

ID: NESDIS-GHE-HourlyRainfall

The HE algorithm uses infrared (IR) brightness temperatures to identify regions of rainfall and retrieve rainfall rate, while using National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Global Forecast System (GFS) model fields to account for the effects of moisture availability, evaporation, orographic modulation, and thermodynamic profile effects. Estimates of rainfall from satellites can provide critical rainfall information in regions where data from gauges or radar are unavailable or unreliable, such as over oceans or sparsely populated regions.
