ENVISAT Validation CTC Page



This page provides color-coded temperature curtains (CTCs) for the ENVISAT Winter Validation Campaign Geophysica flights, as well as plots of the flight tracks. Click on the thumbnail images to examine an enlarged (800x600) PNG image of the thumbnail; click the flight number to see a plot of the flight track. The enlarged PNG images range in size from 30-50 kB. Although CTCs for an entire flight are very useful for understanding what happening on a synoptic scale, they do not use the MTP data at full resolution, and therefore do not adequately illustrate the mesoscale structure of the atmosphere. For comparison of MTP measurements to in situ and remote tracer measurements, full resolution MTP data should be used.
 
Use of This MTP Data
These images are presented here only as an aid for other scientists to understand their ENVISAT data. It may not be used for any other purpose, or referred to, without written permission from MJ Mahoney of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. For more information, go here.
