SW o SOLAR LW o OLR

SW response T response ScaRaB = SW and LW broadband radiometer measuring the whole spectral ranges of the solar reflected radiation (SW), and of the longwave (LW) emission from the surface and atmosphere.

OLR History First measurements of OLR as early as 1959 from Explorer-7 Experiments - ERB, ERBE, ScaRaB, CERES, GERB First routine measurements of OLR from operational satellites began in 1974 –NOAA scanning radiometer ( SR)- window channel ( microns) –Linear algorithm between window radiances and total OLR – based on radiative calculations with model atmospheres –Evolved a few years later to a non linear algorithm which is still in use today - adjusted for different spectral interval SR data , AVHRR 1979-onward

SAR Dipole eddies in Sarichef Strait, which separates Hall and St. Matthew islands, Bering Sea, Alaska, were captured by the ERS-1 satellite in February The individual eddies have diameters of 5 to 9 km with tails of 12 to 19 km. The eddies were tidally generated, and the tidal amplitude was high at the time of the imaging. The eddies were observed only when frazil and grease ice acted as tracers.
