Real-Time MODIS Low-level Temperature Inversion Strength from McMurdoMODIS low-level atmospheric temperature inversion strength product is generated on-site at McMurdo, Antarctica, using data from the National Science Foundation's direct broadcast system. Here are the most recent images. The images are listed for each satellite with the most recent first. Inversion strength is the temperature difference across the inversion, which is assumed to be surface-based. The purpose of this direct broadcast real-time wind system is to generate polar wind and other data more quickly than can be done with other MODIS data sources, and to provide an additional source of information to weather forecasters in Antarctica.
