Global land surface temperature (LST) data derived from satellite-based infrared radiance measurements are highly valuable for various applications in climate research. While situ validation of satellite LST sets is a challenging task, it needed to obtain quantitative information on their accuracy. In the standardised approach multi-sensor presented here first time, obtained with state-of-the-art retrieval algorithms several sensors (AATSR, GOES, MODIS, and SEVIRI) matched spatially...
The correction of directional effects on satellite-retrieved land surface temperature (LST) is high relevance for a proper interpretation spatial and temporal features contained in LST fields. This study presents methodology to correct such an operational setting. relies parametric models, which are computationally efficient require few input information, making them particularly appropriate use. models calibrated with data collocated time space from MODIS (Aqua Terra) SEVIRI (Meteosat),...
Abstract [1] The surface circulation and eddy field from the Azores Current system are studied here by analyzing drifters records altimetry maps collected over more than 16 years. Clear differences in mean flow characteristics allow for a classification of three zonal sectors: west 30°W between Mid-Atlantic Ridge Hyères-Atlantis seamount system, longitude Madeira, east Madeira. A detailed quantitative characterization each sector is given. transition western central parts controlled ridge....

Cordeiro Pires, A., Nolasco, R., Rocha, A. and Dubert, J., 2013. Assessing future climate change in the Iberian Upwelling SystemThe Western Margin is northern limit of Canary System, a region strong mesoscale activity, seasonal variability thus very likely to be sensitive change. Using regional ocean model data from several coupled global models (CGCM), climatological simulations were set up for present scenario. Forcing obtained averaging outputs an ensemble CGCM provided by...
Abstract Coastal upwelling filaments off the Western Iberian Margin, detected in AVHRR satellite imagery and a realistic ROMS simulation of sea surface temperature, were studied seasons (May–October) 2001–2010. Sea temperature data retrieved from numerical simulation. The development variability observed characterized analyzed during each season 10 year period. Filaments generally found anchored to main bathymetric coastal features but more regular northern coast Margin their locations...
Cordeiro Pires, A., Nolasco, R. and Dubert, J., 2013. On the origin of summer upwelled waters in Western Iberian PeninsulaAs most eastern boundary systems, on Margin there is coastal upwelling during due to alongshore northerly winds consequent offshore displacement surface waters. This work addresses these Using a regional ocean model, climatological configuration lagrangian particle module that run backward time, we trace trajectory particles arriving at four areas, delimited by 200-m...
