TL;DR: The Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) project as discussed by the authors collected ocean, ice, and atmospheric datasets over a full annual cycle that could be used to understand the processes controlling surface heat exchanges.

TL;DR: In this article, an extension of the 4-yr dataset reported by D. Wylie et al. has been compiled using multispectral High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS) data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration polar-orbiting satellites.

TL;DR: In this article, the trend in global upper-tropospheric transmissive cirrus cloud cover is beginning to emerge from a four-year cloud climatology using NOAA polarorbiting High-Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS) multispectral data.

TL;DR: The frequency of cloud detection and the frequency with which these clouds are found in the upper troposphere have been extracted from NOAA High Resolution Infrared Radiometer Sounder (HIRS) polar-orbiting satellite data from 1979 to 2001 as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The First ISCCP Regional Experiment (FIRE) Arctic Clouds Experiment was conducted in the Arctic during April through July, 1998 as mentioned in this paper, and the primary goal of the field experiment was to gather the data needed to examine the impact of arctic clouds on the radiation exchange between the surface, atmosphere, and space, and to study how the surface influences the evolution of boundary layer clouds.
