What measurements are made by weather satellites?

Satellites take satellite pictures of the cloud cover, I don't think any other measurements are taken by satellites. You can do a lot with weather satellites, like looking into hurricanes. Other tools are used to take measurements with to determine the path or strength of a hurricane.

How are satellites used and what type of data it do for a meteorologists?

Satellites are used by meteorologists to collect data on weather patterns, such as temperature, cloud cover, and precipitation from space. This data is crucial for weather forecasting, monitoring severe weather events, and tracking climate changes. Satellites provide a global view of the Earth's atmosphere and enable meteorologists to make more accurate predictions.


Weather satellites provide information about the global weather systems on what?

Weather satellites provide information about global weather systems such as cloud cover, temperature, precipitation patterns, and storm formations. They help meteorologists track and forecast weather conditions over large areas by collecting data from different parts of the world.


What is the cloud cover percentage?

Cloud cover percentage refers to the fraction of the sky covered by clouds as observed from a specific location. It is typically expressed as a percentage, where 0% indicates a clear sky and 100% indicates complete cloud cover. This measurement is important for weather forecasting, climate studies, and understanding atmospheric conditions. Meteorologists use various tools, including satellites and ground observations, to assess and report cloud cover.


Pictures of the elements of weather?

I'm not able to display pictures, but I can describe the elements of weather for you. They include temperature, precipitation (rain, snow, sleet), humidity, wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure, and cloud cover. These elements work together to create weather patterns and conditions.


How do measure cloud cover?

Cloud cover can be measured using satellite imagery, ground-based observations, and automated weather stations. Satellites can analyze the amount of light reflected by clouds to estimate their coverage. Ground-based methods involve visually estimating the percentage of the sky covered by clouds. Automated weather stations may use sensors to determine cloud cover based on the amount of sunlight reaching the surface.


Why does NASA have trouble taking satellite pictures of Guatemala's topography?

NASA faces challenges in capturing satellite images of Guatemala's topography primarily due to the country's dense cloud cover and frequent weather disturbances, which obscure visibility. Additionally, Guatemala's mountainous terrain can create complex atmospheric conditions that complicate imaging efforts. While various satellites are equipped to penetrate some cloud cover, the persistent nature of Guatemala's weather can still hinder consistent data collection.
