Entry ID: FIRE_CI1_TOVS

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Temperature soundings from the TOVS sensor on NOAA-9 and -10
satellites. Soundings were made for each pixel over the cirrus IFO
network. Sounding information contains both standard levels and layer
means. Cloud top heights and cloud amount/emmissivity also are
included. Temperature soundings were made at the overpass times of
the NOAA-9 and NOAA-10 satellites when the FIRE network (Wisconsin)
was in view of the satellite. There is a maximum of 4 observation
times per day.
