摘要
The NASA Atmospheric InfraRed Sounder (AIRS) is a new generation of meteorological advanced sounders for operational and research use. All channels for all fields of view from the AIRS were processed into operational binary universal form for the representation (BUFR) of meteorological data format. AIRS data for January 2004 were BUFR-ized and passed to an enhanced operational analysis in current operational format. The verification statistics were derived using the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) operational verification scheme. AIRS hyperspectral data shows significant positive impact in forecast skill over both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere for January 2004.
