11. Seasonal change in the deep atmosphere of Uranus

Abstract

We present high-resolution radio maps of Uranus, made from data collected in 1994 at wavelengths of 2 and 6 cm, which show large-scale changes occurring deep and rapidly in the troposphere. Brightness features in these maps are significantly different from those observed throughout the 1980's. These differences are not due to the changing viewing geometry, but result from atmospheric changes in the 5 to 50 bar region. All the observations show strong latitudinal variations in absorber abundance and/or temperature, causing the South Pole to appear brighter than lower latitudes. The transition between bright pole and darker latitudes is always near -45 [degrees], but between 1989 and 1994 the contrast between the regions increased significantly. This suggests that the large-scale circulation in the upper 50 bars of the uranian Southern Hemisphere changed. Older, disk-averaged microwave observations have suggested that seasonal variability occurs, but these new maps are the first to provide detailed timing and location information which can be used to test dynamical models.

Abstract

The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder/Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit/Humidity Sounder for Brazil (AIRS/AMSU/HSB) instrument suite onboard Aqua observes infrared and microwave radiances twice daily over most of the planet. AIRS offers unprecedented radiometric accuracy and signal to noise throughout the thermal infrared. Observations from the combined suite of AIRS, AMSU, and HSB are processed into retrievals of atmospheric parameters such as temperature, water vapor, and trace gases under all but the cloudiest conditions. A more limited retrieval set based on the microwave radiances is obtained under heavy cloud cover. Before measurements and retrievals from AIRS/AMSU/HSB instruments can be fully utilized they must be compared with the best possible in situ and other ancillary 'truth' observations. Validation is the process of estimating the measurement and retrieval uncertainties through comparison with a set of correlative data of known uncertainties. The ultimate goal of the validation effort is retrieved product uncertainties constrained to those of radiosondes: tropospheric rms uncertainties of 1.0[degrees]C over a 1-km layer for temperature, and 10% over 2-km layers for water vapor. This paper describes the data sources and approaches to be used for validation of the AIRS/AMSU/HSB instrument suite, including validation of the forward models necessary for calculating observed radiances, validation of the observed radiances themselves, and validation of products retrieved from the observed radiances. Constraint of the AIRS product uncertainties to within the claimed specification of 1 K/1 km over well-instrumented regions is feasible within 12 months of launch, but global validation of all AIRS/AMSU/HSB products may require considerably more time due to the novelty and complexity of this dataset and the sparsity of some types of correlative observations. Index Terms--Atmospheric measurements, infrared spectroscopy, inverse problems, microwave radiometry, remote sensing, terrestrial atmosphere.

Abstract

Models for synthesizing radiance measurements by the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) are described. Synthetic radiances have been generated for developing and testing data processing algorithms. The radiances are calculated from geophysical states derived from weather forecasts and climatology using the AIRS rapid transmission algorithm. The data contain horizontal variability at the spatial resolution of AIRS from the surface and cloud fields. This is needed to test retrieval algorithms under partially cloudy conditions. The surface variability is added using vegetation and International Geosphere Biosphere Programme surface type maps, while cloud variability is added randomly. The radiances are spectrally averaged to create High Resolution Infrared Sounder (HIRS) data, and this is compared with actual HIRS2 data on the NOAA 14 satellite. The simulated data underrepresent high-altitude equatorial cirrus clouds and have too much local variability. They agree in the mean to within 1-4 K, and global standard deviation agrees to better than 2 K. Simulated data have been a valuable tool for developing retrieval algorithms and studying error characteristics and will continue to be so after launch. Index Terms--Algorithm development, atmospheric retrieval, cloud scene modeling, data simulation, High Resolution Infrared Sounder (HIRS), satellite remote sensing.

Abstract

A component of the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument system is the AIRS/Visible Near InfraRed (Vis/NIR) instrument. With a nadir ground resolution of 2.28 km and four channels, the Vis/NIR instrument provides diagnostic support to the infrared retrievals from the AIRS instrument and several research products, including surface solar flux studies. The AIRS Vis/NIR is composed of three narrowband (channel 1: 0.40-0.44 [micro]m; channel 2:0.58-0.68 [micro]m, and channel 3: 0.71-0.92 [micro]m) and one broadband (channel 4: 0.49-0.94 [micro]m) channel, each a linear detector array of nine pixels. It is calibrated onboard with three tungsten lamps. Vicarious calibrations using ground targets of known reflectance and a cross-calibration with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) augment the onboard calibration. One of AIRS Vis/NIR's principal supporting functions is the detection of low clouds to flag these conditions for atmospheric temperature retrievals. Once clouds are detected, a cloud height index is obtained based on the ratio (channel 2--channel 3)/channel 1 that is sensitive to the partitioning of water vapor absorption above and below clouds. The determination of the surface solar radiation flux is principally based on channel 4 broadband measurements and the well-established relationship between top-of-the atmosphere (broadband) radiance and the surface irradiance. Index Terms--Calibration, cloud detection, cloud height, surface irradiance, surface solar radiation, three-dimensional (3-D) cloud effects, visible, near Infra-Red.

15. Science Opportunity Analyzer (SOA) Version 8

Abstract

SOA allows scientists to plan spacecraft observations. It facilitates the identification of geometrically interesting times in a spacecraft s orbit that a user can use to plan observations or instrument-driven spacecraft maneuvers. These observations can then be visualized multiple ways in both two- and three-dimensional views. When observations have been optimized within a spacecraft's flight rules, the resulting plans can be output for use by other JPL uplink tools. Now in its eighth major version, SOA improves on these capabilities in a modern and integrated fashion. SOA consists of five major functions: Opportunity Search, Visualization, Observation Design, Constraint Checking, and Data Output. Opportunity Search is a GUI-driven interface to existing search engines that can be used to identify times when a spacecraft is in a specific geometrical relationship with other bodies in the solar system. This function can be used for advanced mission planning as well as for making last-minute adjustments to mission sequences in response to trajectory modifications. Visualization is a key aspect of SOA. The user can view observation opportunities in either a 3D representation or as a 2D map projection. Observation Design allows the user to orient the spacecraft and visualize the projection of the instrument field of view for that orientation using the same views as Opportunity Search. Constraint Checking is provided to validate various geometrical and physical aspects of an observation design. The user has the ability to easily create custom rules or to use official project-generated flight rules. This capability may also allow scientists to easily assess the cost to science if flight rule changes occur. Data Output allows the user to compute ancillary data related to an observation or to a given position of the spacecraft along its trajectory. The data can be saved as a tab-delimited text file or viewed as a graph. SOA combines science planning functionality unique to both JPL and the sponsoring spacecraft. SOA is able to ingest JPL SPICE Kernels that are used to drive the tool and its computations. A Percy search engine is then included that identifies interesting time periods for the user to build observations. When observations are then built, flight-like orientation algorithms replicate spacecraft dynamics to closely simulate the flight spacecraft s dynamics. SOA v8 represents large steps forward from SOA v7 in terms of quality, reliability, maintainability, efficiency, and user experience. A tailored agile development environment has been built around SOA that provides automated unit testing, continuous build and integration, a consolidated Web-based code and documentation storage environment, modern Java enhancements, and a focus on usability

18. Ice sublimation and rheology - Implications for the Martian polar layered deposits

Author

Hofstadter, Mark D and Murray, Bruce C

Subjects
Lunar And Planetary Exploration
Abstract

If the sublimation and creep of water ice are important processes in the Martian polar layered deposits, ice-rich scenario formation and evolution schemes must invoke a mechanism for the inhibition of sublimation, such as a dust layer derived from the residue of the sublimating deposits. This layer could be of the order of 1 m in thickness. If the deposits are ice-rich, flows of more than 1 km should have occurred. It is noted that the dust particles in question may be cemented by such ice that may be present, but that impurities may also have served to cement dust particles together even in the absence of ice.

19. Vertical motions in the Uranian atmosphere - An analysis of radio observations

Author

Hofstadter, Mark D, Berge, Glenn L, and Muhleman, Duane O

Subjects
Lunar And Planetary Exploration
Abstract

The present, 6-cm radio map of Uranus indicates latitudinal features which may be due to vertical motions of the atmosphere. It appears in light of Voyager IR measurements as well as previously obtained radio data that these large-scale vertical motions, which have not undergone significant changes over the course of 8 years, extend from the 0.1- to the 45-bar levels; this span corresponds to a height of the order of 250 km. The latitudinal structures are believed to be primarily caused by horizontal variations of absorber abundances.

31. Latitudinal variations of ammonia in the atmosphere of Uranus - An analysis of microwave observations

Author

Hofstadter, Mark D and Muhleman, Duane O

Subjects
Lunar And Planetary Exploration
Abstract

A 2-cm wavelength VLA map of Uranus is found upon analysis to display strong limb darkening and a lack of symmetry about the subearth point, perhaps due to a latitudinally varying NH3 mixing ratio. The change in NH3 abundance occurs near -45 deg latitude, and the calculated NH3 molar mixing ratios in the 5-20 bar region average 4.9 + or - 0.7 x 10 to the -7th at -90 to -45 deg latitudes, and 1.3 + or - 0.4 x 10 to the -6th at -45 to -15 deg latitudes. The model is in agreement both with previous work indicating the depletion of ammonia relative to solar abundance and a preliminary analysis of 6-cm data.
