2003: Global analyses of sea surface temperature, sea ice, and night marine air temperature since the late Nineteenth Century
- J. Geophysical Research
"... data set, HadISST1, and the nighttime marine air temperature (NMAT) data set, HadMAT1. HadISST1 replaces the global sea ice and sea surface temperature (GISST) data sets and is a unique combination of monthly globally complete fields of SST and sea ice concentration on a 1 ° latitude-longitude grid ..."

procedure, followed by superposition of quality-improved gridded observations onto the reconstructions to restore local detail. The sea ice fields are made more homogeneous by compensating satellite microwave-based sea ice concentrations for the impact of surface melt effects on retrievals in the Arctic
Wireless sensor networks: a survey
, 2002
"... This paper describes the concept of sensor networks which has been made viable by the convergence of microelectro-mechanical systems technology, wireless communications and digital electronics. First, the sensing tasks and the potential sensor networks applications are explored, and a review of fact ..."

This paper describes the concept of sensor networks which has been made viable by the convergence of microelectro-mechanical systems technology, wireless communications and digital electronics. First, the sensing tasks and the potential sensor networks applications are explored, and a review of factors influencing the design of sensor networks is provided. Then, the communication architecture for sensor networks is outlined, and the algorithms and protocols developed for each layer in the literature are explored. Open research issues for the realization of sensor networks are
Airborne Measurements of Arctic Sea Ice, Glacier and Snow Emissivity at 24-183 GHz
"... Abstract--Microwave radiometers were operated on a research aircraft during low-level flights in the Arctic in March 2001. Data from these instruments are used to calculate surface emissivity at millimetre wavelengths. This calculation includes the retrieval of an effective temperature from multiple ..."

, 1992
"... The spectre of climate change that is unfolding now is undeniably a cumulative impact of anthropogenic interference in the climate system over the last two centuries. The science is clear and the policy community is being increasingly convinced and galvanised into action to address this emergent cha ..."

challenge in light of the associated economic and human dimensions. The impacts of climate change ranging from sea level rise, melting ice caps and glaciers, severe weather events, drought, flooding, warming, subtle changes in ecosystems – will impinge on every aspect of society and economic life. The costs

, 1998
"... ABSTRACT. A recently compiled 18-year record (1979 to 1996) of sea ice concentrations derived from four passive-microwave satellite instruments has allowed the quantification of a variety of measures of Arctic sea ice variability. Earlier maps generated using data through August 1987 have been updat ..."

The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME): Mission Concept and First Scientific Results
, 1999
"... . The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) is a new instrument aboard ESA's 2nd European Remote Sensing Satellite (ERS2) , which was launched in April 1995. The main scientific objective of the GOME mission is to determine the global distribution of ozone and several other trace gases, whi ..."

Validation of total water vapor retrieval with an airborne millimeter wave radiometer over Arctic sea ice
"... 2001 were used to validate a total water vapor (TWV) algorithm. This is a modified version of an algorithm developed by Miao et al. [2001] using SSM/T2 data in the Antarctic. Data from a passive microwave radiometer with channels at 157, 183 � 7, 183 � 3, and 183 � 1 GHz have been used. Dropsondes w ..."

In general, there is a good agreement with TWV derived from dropsondes using the 183 GHz data only. This assumption
