Mockevičiutė K., Stankūnavičius G. Possibilities to improve ground-based cloud cover observations using Satellite Application Facility (SAFNWC) products. Geografija. 2007. T. 43(1). ISSN 1392-1096.
The study concerns the practical application of the new Satellite Application Facility is support of the Nowcasting and Very Short Range Forecasting (SAFNWC) product, Cloud Mask (CMa) for the cloud amount ground-based observations. The analysis covers a oneyear period. The cloud cover observation scale was modified to adapt to remote sensing data. The results revealed various sizes and shapes of areas of influence of the different meteorological stations. These areas pertain to the major features of the main landscapes in Lithuania and could be a good measure of station representativeness. The analysis not only shows the possibility of observational network optimization, but also offers guidelines for improving the cloudiness climatology dataset.
