A E B F C None of the above D ________________________ Which of the above satellites could be employed for passive sensing? Mark all that apply. A E B F C None of the above D For the next five (5) questions, to the diagram below. Figure 3: ratio from MODIS cloud mask. Image captured by AIRS instrument aboard MODIS satellite on March 4, 2006, daytime. ______ Which regions in the diagram above indicate a cloudy area? Blue Grey None of them; this map does not Pink show clouds. ______ The image above was produced by a single satellite. Which of the following describes this satellite’s orbit? Eccentric orbit Low Earth orbit Polar orbit Irregular orbit Geostationary ______ What explains the fourteen white lens-shaped streaks running north to south? These are areas outside of the satellite’s field of view. These are areas of high cloud coverage. These are areas disrupted by interference from the magnetosphere. These are areas that could not be processed at ground level. These are international non-surveillance areas. ____________ Consider the means by which the satellite detected these data. The extinction coefficient of the clouds (βe) results from what two factors? Mark the two that apply! The transmission spectrum wavelength The absorption coefficient The Rayleigh scattering coefficient The transient emission coefficient The scattering coefficient ______ A white cloud’s is likely to be βa 1 -0.5 This cannot be ≈ ≈ 0.5 -1 without ≈ ≈ 0 more data. ≈ For the following two (2) questions, refer to the diagram below.
