Insuring incorporation of improvements to the GOES Sounder vertical profile retrieval algorithm into

NOAA/NESDIS operations

An improved version of the GOES Sounder retrieval algorithm is being implemented (in McIDAS), and put to the test, before going to “ops”.

Current GOES Sounder products may offer a practical, realistic estimate of how relevant the GOES-R “legacy Sounder” products requirement may be for end users (NWS forecasters).

GOES retrievals compared to

radiosondes (00UT 22 Sep 2009)

Better lower layer

Betterupper layer

Is the implementation correct?

New (Li 2008) version vs

Old (Ma 1999) version
