Diurnal variations of cloud activity in Bangladesh and north of the Bay of Bengal in 2000

Diurnal variations of cloud activity in Bangladesh and north of the Bay of Bengal in 2000

The Japanese Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS-5) high resolution (10 km mesh) hourly data are sampled in 1°×1° grid boxes in the domain of 600×600 km over Bangladesh (land) and the north part of the Bay of Bengal (ocean) to obtain diurnal cycle of cloud activity. The cloud embedded area (...

Zusammenfassung:The Japanese Geostationary Meteorological Satellite (GMS-5) high resolution (10 km mesh) hourly data are sampled in 1°×1° grid boxes in the domain of 600×600 km over Bangladesh (land) and the north part of the Bay of Bengal (ocean) to obtain diurnal cycle of cloud activity. The cloud embedded area (CEA) shows afternoon (∼1700 LST) and morning (∼0003 LST) peaks over land typically composed of relatively small deep (
