NASA Mission Gets Its First Snapshot of Polar Heat Emissions

The PREFIRE mission will help develop a more detailed understanding of how much heat the Arctic and Antarctica radiate into space and how this influences global climate.

NASA’s newest climate mission has started collecting data on the amount of heat in the form of far-infrared radiation that the Arctic and Antarctic environments emit to space. These measurements by the Polar Radiant Energy in the Far-Infrared Experiment (PREFIRE) are key to better predicting how climate change will affect Earth’s ice, seas, and weather — information that will help humanity better prepare for a changing world.

One of PREFIRE’s two shoebox-size cube satellites, or CubeSats, launched on May 25 from New Zealand, followed by its twin on June 5. The first CubeSat started sending back science data on July 1. The second CubeSat began collecting science data on July 25, and the mission will release the data after an issue with the GPS system on this CubeSat is resolved.

The PREFIRE mission will help researchers gain a clearer understanding of when and where the Arctic and Antarctica emit far-infrared radiation (wavelengths greater than 15 micrometers) to space. This includes how atmospheric water vapor and clouds influence the amount of heat that escapes Earth. Since clouds and water vapor can trap far-infrared radiation near Earth’s surface, they can increase global temperatures as part of a process known as the greenhouse effect. This is where gases in Earth’s atmosphere — such as carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor — act as insulators, preventing heat emitted by the planet from escaping to space.

“We are constantly looking for new ways to observe the planet and fill in critical gaps in our knowledge. With CubeSats like PREFIRE, we are doing both,” said Karen St. Germain, director of the Earth Science Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “The mission, part of our competitively-selected Earth Venture program, is a great example of the innovative science we can achieve through collaboration with university and industry partners.”

Earth absorbs much of the Sun’s energy in the tropics; weather and ocean currents transport that heat toward the Arctic and Antarctica, which receive much less sunlight. The polar environment — including ice, snow, and clouds — emits a lot of that heat into space, much of which is in the form of far-infrared radiation. But those emissions have never been systematically measured, which is where PREFIRE comes in.

“It’s so exciting to see the data coming in,” said Tristan L’Ecuyer, PREFIRE’s principal investigator and a climate scientist at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. “With the addition of the far-infrared measurements from PREFIRE, we’re seeing for the first time the full energy spectrum that Earth radiates into space, which is critical to understanding climate change.”

This visualization of PREFIRE data (above) shows brightness temperatures — or the intensity of radiation emitted from Earth at several wavelengths, including the far-infrared. Yellow and red indicate more intense emissions originating from Earth’s surface, while blue and green represent lower emission intensities coinciding with colder areas on the surface or in the atmosphere.

The visualization starts by showing data on mid-infrared emissions (wavelengths between 4 to 15 micrometers) taken in early July during several polar orbits by the first CubeSat to launch. It then zooms in on two passes over Greenland. The orbital tracks expand vertically to show how far-infrared emissions vary through the atmosphere. The visualization ends by focusing on an area where the two passes intersect, showing how the intensity of far-infrared emissions changed over the nine hours between these two orbits.

The two PREFIRE CubeSats are in asynchronous, near-polar orbits, which means they pass over the same spots in the Arctic and Antarctic within hours of each other, collecting the same kind of data. This gives researchers a time series of measurements that they can use to study relatively short-lived phenomena like ice sheet melting or cloud formation and how they affect far-infrared emissions over time.

More About PREFIRE

The PREFIRE mission was jointly developed by NASA and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. A division of Caltech in Pasadena, California, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory manages the mission for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate and provided the spectrometers. Blue Canyon Technologies built and now operates the CubeSats, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison is processing and analyzing the data collected by the instruments.

A arte de vivir

Non morre de golpe quen deixa de amar, senón lentamente, no rozamento calado dos días grises, no eco de soños que nunca se cumpren, nas palabras que quixo dicir e gardou no peito.

Apágase amodo quen só camiña polos mesmos carreiros, sen nunca desviarse, quen teme ao abismo e non salta, quen prefire a gaiola antes que o vento.

Morre en silencio quen deixa a risa nalgún recuncho da súa infancia afastada, quen esquece a maxia da choiva na pel e o tremor dun bico roubado na tarde.

Pero vive quen rompe os medos en mil anacos, quen enche o seu peito de instantes eternos, quen sae ao mundo coa alma espida e deixa a súa pegada no barro do tempo.

Vive quen sabe perderse sen medo, quen abraza o misterio do día seguinte, quen chora e sorrí coa mesma forza porque entende que todo é parte da viaxe.

Vivir é unha arte, non un costume, un lume danzante que nunca se apaga, un berro de vida que arde nos ollos daqueles que elixen queimarse e voar.

Do meu poemario (work in progress): O eco da sombra

[kymera219]

For the character asks:

1. Canon I outright reject - about anyone/anything

10. Best moment on screen - Derek

16. Deepest darkest secret they won’t even admit to themselves - Peter and/or Stiles

42. 3 comfort items - Peter

50. A memory they’ve blocked out - Stiles

1. Canon I outright reject

I have two answers for this. First up is Peter working with Kate in S4. I outright reject he worked willingly with the woman that murdered his entire family. If she was able to use magic whoopie to deage Derek to a teenager, whose to say she didn't do something similar to Peter when they fought in the vault?

Second Canon I reject is FBI agent Stiles. There is no way Stiles authority issues Stilinski would go to work for an an agency with MORE rules and risk Rafe McCall (who he hates) being his superior. It was a stupid write off and I refuse to believe he did anything with the field after that messy Derek rescuing internship.

10. Best moment on screen

Honestly anytime Derek was on was good because that little trauma kitten is gorgeous. I have to say my favorite is when he beats Scott's ass on the ice rink in S2 cause Daddy angy does things to me

16. Deepest darkest secret they won't even admit to themselves

For Peter, it's the need to be loved. Despite acting like he could care less about any of the pack (save Derek, Stiles, and Malia) I feel like the man yearns for acceptance and pack. After all a man doesn't get himself burned to death twice for people if he doesn't have any feelings at all.

For Stiles, it's his blindness to the faults of the people he loves most. I feel like he can't ever admit to himself that his father was a bit of a crap parent, and his obsession with taking care of and worrying about the bills for a grown man stem from years of abandonment and being a walking case of parentified child syndrome.

42. 3 Comfort items

For Peter I imagine 3 things :

the V-neck sweaters because they give him confidence after suffering those burn scars for years

that laptop he keeps everywhere cause I think it was a prefire possession and he's probably got family photos/videos downloaded onto it

The alpha power because he doesn't want to feel helpless ever again

50. A memory they've blocked out

I'm fairly convinced Stiles mother hurt him before she was put in the hospital and his love for her keeps the memory blocked out.

At the video store Ruth holds the tapes the club wants to impress Josh (doesn’t work).

She works various jobs around Eltingville to save up for college. She also worked at ToysRUs (prefire) then the Supermarket. She's always on that grind and sadly encounters these guys way more than the average human should, but weirdly enough she's okay with that. As long as she can pinch Josh’s acneridden cheeks she's fine.

Caminhadas matinais tem me ganhado, bem mais do que o vizinho irritante que as meninas do bairro vivem no portão. A musica que eu mais estava amando, era uma sobre amor próprio. Boto meu fone de ouvido que é bem mais eficiente do que a maioria das pessoas da minha rua e sigo meu caminho. Eu estava completamente apaixonada por mim, e era confortante a minha paz. Não há desvios nem inquietação. Sigo contente comigo mesma. Eu me sinto plena e haja suor pra tentar chegar aqui. Nem tente querido, deseje algo que possa conseguir um dia. Nem perca seu tempo amor, olhe para o outro lado. Nao adianta assobiar igual um imbecil ou tentar chamar minha atenção numa moto tão barulhenta e nojenta, quanto quem anda nela. Nao tenho espaço para meninos mimadinhos. Nem para homens afundados. Nao to afim de me enfiar em um buraco cheio de gente que fede a cigarro e alcool, pra tentar conhecer alguem legal, ou tentar me aparecer em uma foto com um vestido que mostra a bunda, ou um cropped que mostra o peito. Como um cardápio online. E nem aparecer em um bar cheio de homens mal resolvidos que nao amam nem a si mesmos, e dizem amar a cachaca. E nunca cogitei derrubar minha dignidade pedindo pra um ex insuportável voltar, ja que rompi com ele por nao suportar tanta chatice. Nao existe um passado que eu queira no meu presente. No meu presente só penso no meu futuro; eu cada dia mais linda e mais feliz. E a carencia de alguns dias eu prefiro suprir com meu gatinho, que é uma fofura e fica quieto quando eu explodo. Nao adianta me chamar pra almoçar, voce nao sabe? Eu sigo de dieta. Pior ainda é me chamar pra ir a sua igreja, achando que ganhara alguma moral por seguir Deus. Nao estou disponível, chame uma menininha mais imatura. Talvez eu prefire acender um incenso, colocar um blues e uma taca de vinho. Mais sozinha. Não é convite. É que minha compania só basta. E pra acabar com mensagens inesperadas, homens sem senso, e mulheres que odeiam mulheres, eu nao uso mais apps sociais. Sem Instagram, sem whatsapp, sem facebook ou toda essa idiotice que o povo tem pra se aparecer de alguma maneira diferente. Não faço parte da maioria. Estou vivendo. Vivendo pra mim. Eu posso ir a praia ler um livro depois da caminhada, e cozinhar meu frango com salada a hora que eu sentir fome. Posso tomar meu café sem açúcar e forte, sem me lamentar por ser amargo. Alias o amargo tem sido algo bom pra mim. Tenho gostado mais que o doce. Minhas escolhas são impróprias para alguns. Eu nao preciso de ninguem. Mais tantos por ai precisam de alguem igual a mim..
