Recently, researchers from NOAA Center for Weather and Climate Prediction (NCWCP) and University of Maryland gathered for a mini-conference to share presentations from recent conferences such as the American Geophysical Union (AGU) and American Meteorological Society (AMS) annual meetings.
ESSIC/CISESS Scientists were among some of the selected talks. The following researchers all gave 15-minute presentations:
- Peng Yu, “The Status of the Land Surface Temperature Product from GOES-18”
- Erin Jones, “Expanding the Use of CrIS Observations in Global Data Assimilation and Forecasting at NOAA: Methods, Findings, and Future Steps”
- Likun Wang, “VIIRS Radiance Cluster Analysis within CrIS Supporting NWPData Assimilation”
- Xi Shao, “Enabling VIIRS Sensor Data Record Validation with a New Global/Regional Validation Site (GReVS) System”
- Jifu Yin, “Refinement of NOAA AMSR-2 Soil Moisture Data Product using an Optimal Machine Learning Model”
- Katherine Lukens, “A Novel Archive for the Intercomparison of Winds from Multiple Observing Platforms Provides a Long-term Evaluation of Aeolus L2B Winds”
- Isaac Moradi, “Enhancing CRTM all-sky simulations and implementation of a new active sensor module”
- Yongzhen Fan, “Machine Learning Enhanced Snowfall Rate Retrievals from Passive Microwave Sensors”
- Veljko Petkovic, “Uncertainty Estimates of ML-based Satellite Products”
- Wenhui Wang, “A Study of Global Deep Convective Clouds (DCC) Changes Using 10 Years of Suomi NPP VIIRS Reprocessed Level 1B Data”
- Rachael Kroodsma, “Status of the GPM Intercalibrated Microwave Radiometer Constellation: 35 Years of Observations for Long-term Precipitation Studies and Beyond”
- William J.S. Miller, “Evaluating the Impacts of COSMIC-2 Radio Occultation Bending Angle Assimilation on HWRF Tropical Cyclone Forecasts”
- Fangfang Yu, “On-orbit radiometric calibration performance of GOES-16/17/18 ABI IR channels”
- Jonathan Poterjoy, “Fully non-parametric data assimilation for geophysical models”
- Tianfeng Chai, “Power Plant SO2 Emission Estimation Using Aircraft Measurements and HYSPLIT Dispersion Modeling”
- Guangming Zheng, “Chesapeake Bay HypoxAI: Hypoxia forecast using artificial intelligence”
