  7. Sounder Comparison (GOES-Current to HES-Req) CurrentRequirement Coverage Rate CONUS/hr Sounding Disk/hr Horizontal Resolution - Sampling Distance 10 km 10 km - Individual Sounding 30-50 km 10 km Vertical resolution ~3 km 1 km Accuracy Temperature 2 deg. K 1 deg. K Relative Humidity 20% 10%

  8. HES • The Hyperspectral Environmental Suite (HES) will be located on a geostationary platform. • 2013 • NOAA operational • Currently in formulation phase • HES is an outgrowth of earlier ABS efforts • HES includes the functionality of the old Advanced Baseline Sounder (ABS) • HES has been expanded to include other capabilities for environmental monitoring employing the improved temporal resolution from GEO. • Coastal Ocean • Open Ocean • Land

  9. HES-IR Tasks • HES - Disk Sounding (HES-DS) • Provide vertical moisture and temperature information, and other environmental data that will be used by NOAA and other public and private agencies to produce routine meteorological analyses and forecasts • Provide data that may be used to extend knowledge and understanding of the atmosphere and its processes in order to improve short/long-term weather forecasts. • HES - Severe Weather / Mesoscale (HES-SW/M) • Provide environmental data that can be used to expand knowledge of mesoscale and synoptic scale storm development and provide data that may be used to help in forecasting severe weather events. • Backup mode in the event of a GOES-R ABI failure (both).

  10. HES-Disk Sounding (HES-DS) task • Spatial Resolution • IR: Threshold=10 km, Goal=2 km, • Vis: Threshold=1.0 km, Goal= 0.5 km • Coverage rate (Threshold) • 62 degree LZA / hour at 10 km resolution • Coverage area must be flexible and selectable.

  11. HES-Severe Weather/Mesoscale task • Spatial Resolution • IR: Threshold=4 km, Goal=2 km, • Vis: Threshold=1.0 km, Goal= 0.5 km • Coverage rate • 1000 km x 1000 km (locations vary) in 4.4 minutes • Coverage area must be flexible and selectable. • Spectral coverage: • Specific examples are cited in the MRD, same as HES-DS • Spectral resolution: • 15 um CO2 band: 0.6 cm-1, Windows: 0.6-1.0 cm-1, Ozone: 1 cm-1, H2O: 1-2 cm-1, near 4 um: 2.5 cm-1, Visible: 0.18 um

  12. IR Spectral Coverage (DS or SW/M) HES’ HES Note that 5

  13. CIMSS Much improved spatial coverage with the HES Sounder Current GOES Sounder coverage in one hour GOES-R HES Sounder coverage in one hour Cloud Top Pressure

  14. Hyperspectral Environmental SuiteCoastal Waters • Coastal Water (CW) Imaging • Coastal Waters within 400 km • Vis Spatial resolution 300 m • Spectral Range 0.4 m - 1.0 m • 180 minutes hour refresh rate • Can look over land also • Air quality applications • Locate many tornado tracks • Flood extent • Hurricanes

  15. HES-CW coverage without cloud mask information from the ABI Default schedule might be to scan along entire coast.

  16. HES-CW coverage with cloud mask information from the ABI Cloud mask from ABI would suggest to not scan over cloudy regions and hence other regions could be scanned.

  17. Real-time, autonomous test on February 5th From Dan Mandl, NASA

  18. Estimated (required) coverage times of typical areas at various spatial resolutions for the HES

  19. Other important inputs for HES data collection locations could be: NWP, sounding instability, ABI cloud mask, NPOESS, operator, etc.

  20. Sample GOES-R 3-hour schedule for the ABI and (1 telescope design) HES MSS = Mesoscale Scans from the ABI MS = HES-Sounder mesoscale mode FD = Full imaging disk scan FSD = Full “sounding” disk scan

  21. Visible image example • Visible image to show the cloud cover (GOES-East Example). • What follows is a HES example coverage loop.

  34. GOES-R The great amount of information from the GOES-R series will both offer a continuation of current product and services, and also allow for improved or new capabilities. These products, based on validated requirements, will cover a wide range of phenomena. This includes applications relating to: weather, ocean, coastal zones, land, hazards, solar and space. The Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI), the Hyperspectral Environmental Suite (HES), the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), the space and solar instrument suites (Solar Imaging Suite (SIS) and the Space Environment In-Situ Suite (SEISS) on GOES-R will enable much improved monitoring compared to current capabilities.
