    Beschreibung: Three-dimensional global distributions of atmospheric heating are estimated for January and July of the 3-year period 1986-88 from the European Center for Medium Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere (TOGA) assimilated datasets. Emphasis is placed on the interseasonal and interannual variability of heating both locally and regionally. Large fluctuations in the magnitude of heating and the disposition of maxima/minima in the Tropics occur over the 3-year period. This variability, which is largely in accord with anomalous precipitation expected during the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle, appears realistic. In both January and July, interannual differences of 1.0-1.5 K/day in the vertically averaged heating occur over the tropical Pacific. These interannual regional differences are substantial in comparison with maximum monthly averaged heating rates of 2.0-2.5 K/day. In the extratropics, the most prominent interannual variability occurs along the wintertime North Atlantic cyclone track. Vertical profiles of heating from selected regions also reveal large interannual variability. Clearly evident is the modulation of the heating within tropical regions of deep moist convection associated with the evolution of the ENSO cycle. The heating integrated over continental and oceanic basins emphasizes the impact of land and ocean surfaces on atmospheric energy balance and depicts marked interseasonal and interannual large-scale variability.

    Beschreibung: An artificial-neural-network method, first developed for the measurement and control of atmospheric phase distortion, using stellar images, was used to estimate the optical aberration of the Hubble Space Telescope. A total of 26 estimates of distortion was obtained from 23 stellar images acquired at several secondary-mirror axial positions. The results were expressed as coefficients of eight orthogonal Zernike polynomials: focus through third-order spherical. For all modes other than spherical the measured aberration was small. The average spherical aberration of the estimates was -0.299 micron rms, which is in good agreement with predictions obtained when iterative phase-retrieval algorithms were used.

    Beschreibung: The global and the regional distributions of the time-averaged stratospheric-tropospheric (ST) mass exchange were analyzed. Using a mathematical formulation of ST exchange, the cross-tropopause mass flux was diagnosed globally for January 1979, and contributions by physical mechanisms including the diabatic transport and the quasi-horizontal adiabatic transport along isentropes that intersect the tropopause surface were evaluated. Two regions of mass flux zonally integrated into the stratosphere were found: one over tropical latitudes associated with diabatic transports, and a second one over subpolar latitudes associated with adiabatic transport. The results are consistent with independent analyses of trace atmospheric constituents.

    Beschreibung: Global distributions of atmospheric heating for the annual cycle of the Global Weather Experiment are estimated from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Level 3b data set. Distributions of monthly, seasonally, and annually averaged heating are presented for isentropic and isobaric layers within the troposphere and for the troposphere as a whole. The distributions depict a large-scale structure of atmospheric heating that appears spatially and temporally consistent with known features of the global circulation and the seasonal evolution.

    Beschreibung: This study surveys the large-scale distribution of heating for January 1979 obtained from five sources of information. Through intercomparison of these distributions, with emphasis on satellite-derived information, an investigation is conducted into the global distribution of atmospheric heating and the impact of observations on the diagnostic estimates of heating derived from assimilated datasets. The results indicate a substantial impact of satellite information on diagnostic estimates of heating in regions where there is a scarcity of conventional observations. The addition of satellite data provides information on the atmosphere's temperature and wind structure that is important for estimation of the global distribution of heating and energy exchange.

    Beschreibung: The large-scale three-dimensional time-averaged distribution of heating and its temporal evolution as determined from the European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Global Weather Experiment (GWE) Level IIIb data set are examined. Global distributions of vertically averaged heating for January, April, July, and October 1979 are presented to illustrate the seasonal evolution of the planetary pattern. Horizontal distributions of heating and vertical profiles from various climatological regimes of the planetary circulation are given and provide insight into the four-dimensional structure of the thermal forcing of the atmosphere. Major features of the global distributions include heating in regions of deep moist convection over places such as South America. Seasonal meridional and zonal heating migration are discussed and it is noted that zonal migration is linked with planetary scale distribution of continents and oceans and the land-sea surface temperature distribution. Various degrees of heating in the troposphere and their consequences are investigated.
