One of three sounders that comprise the TIROS- N Operational Vertical Sounder package on NOAA polar orbiter satellites. The primary function is to make temperature soundings in the presence of clouds.
Industry:Weather
A pyrheliometer of the bimetallic type used to measure the intensity of direct solar radiation. The radiation is measured in terms of the angular deflection of a blackened bimetallic strip that is exposed to the direct solar beams. In its original form the instrument was also responsive to ambient temperature variations. However, modifications have been introduced that eliminate this source of error.
Industry:Weather
A system of physical units based upon the use of the meter, the metric ton (or tonne: 10<sup>6</sup> grams), and the second as elementary quantities of length, mass, and time, respectively. In this system, density is expressed in tonne m<sup>−3</sup>, velocity or speed in m s<sup>−1</sup>, force in tonne m<sup>−2</sup> (or sthene), pressure in centibars (or pieze), and energy in kilojoules. The mts system is used primarily by European engineers.

A series of European geostationary satellites, initiated with the launch of Meteosat-1 in November 1977. Meteosat-1 was the first geostationary satellite to provide 6. 7-μm water vapor imagery. Meteosat is positioned above the prime meridian (0° longitude).

The second generation of Meteosat satellites, offering enhanced capabilities, such as sharper images across more spectral bands. The MSG has improved horizontal image resolution for the visible light spectral channel (1 km as opposed to 2. 5 km on the current Meteosat) and all-digital data transmission which is 20 times faster (up to 3,2 Mbps) than on the current Meteosat. The first of four satellites in this new series (MSG-1) was declared operational in January 2004. Once operational, MSG satellites are given numerical designations as part of the ongoing Meteosat series. MSG-1, for example, became Meteosat-8. SEVIRI, a 12-channel, high-resolution imaging instrument, and GERB, a suite of earth radiation budget sensors are the primary MSG sensors.
