scan 1 scan 50 Can’t see much 10/85 displacement in E-W direction scan 50 senses ice layer and colder 85 GHz TB ER-2 flying towards the east 142154 (Time) 143343 scan 1 scan 35 senses lower rain layer and warmer 10 GHz TB, so it shows up closer to the center of the overall AMPR scan swath 20 km 10/85 displacement in N-S direction For a hypothetical vertically erect column and when viewing the AMPR data in scan space (i.e. not mapping the coordinates), the 10 GHz will see the cloud at a scan closer to nadir while the 85 GHz will see the cloud at a scan farther from nadir. When viewing the data in mapped coordinates though, the locations of the signal (across-track) will be the same (for a perfectly erect column). 40 km SOUTH
