  4. Snow Cloud-day Etna Plume Clear Sky Ocean AIRS Tunisia desert

  5. cloud snow desert Investigated areas

  6. AIRS Spectra from around the Globe 20-July-2002 Ascending LW_Window

  7. Day? Night? Desert? Ice/Snow? Here the temperature is lower in the window than in the H2O band: Signature of cold surface and dry atmosphere Here the flatness indicates that it could be either snow /ice, or night Low BT points to snow/ice Here two windows channel at similar level exclude desert land Low surface temp. 31 29 23 Very dry atmosphere

  8. Polar ice, very low temperature Polar coastline

  9. Comparison with modis ice/snow pseudochannels 31-23: Snow surfaces have small negative difference of Tb 31-29: snow surfaces have same Tb

  10. Our conclusion Probably ice/snow, clear, very cold, hard to say day/night. (Polar bear chattering with teeth)

  11. Land? Ocean? This BT difference may be due to bare soil (desert): see picture Night or lack of clouds (water clouds) Relatively low surface temperature 31 29 32

  12. Tunisia desert - AIRS spectra Daytime No clouds

  13. 31-29 over desert (red surfaces) Sea, land with vegetation (blue surfaces) 31-32: difference over desert is close to 0 Thin clouds (cirrus) brighter 11 m - 12 m 11m - 8.6 m

  14. Our conclusion Probably night, desert, and presence of cirrus clouds. (Muffled sounds of camel hoofs coming from a distance)

  15. Daytime, due to the steep slope from reflected sun radiation: this is very high, so it could be thick clouds, or clouds composed by small droplets (high reflectivity). Presence of clouds: we see that it is ice clouds, because otherwise it would not be so steep 23 31 29 32

  16. AIRS spectra over cloudy area Sun reflection Low temperature

  17. 23-31 29-31 31-32 High cloud with ice particles on the top well presented Broken clouds and low water clouds better detected Thin clouds well detected Thick high clouds not detected

  18. Our conclusion • Daytime, probably two layers of clouds, or broken clouds (where we have both ice and water droplet) Final decision • High cirrus over a low cloud at the daytime

  19. Clear sky over the sea - AIRS spectra High temperature, similar in all windows

  20. SO2 plume from Etna - AIRS spectra Etna plume: Brightness Temperature Spectra Characteristic slopes of window channels
