YOTC - Giovanni System
Year of Tropical Convection - Giovanni System Beta prototype
Home
The YOTC-Giovanni System provides visualization and data for parameters relevant to the research and investigation of tropical convection. This is a tool that is in progress and will be advancing over time.
To view Level 2 parameters: YOTC - Giovanni System interface that contain level 2 data go to
http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/YOTC/yotc_template
. This interface includes AIRS L2 profiles and lat/lon maps, MODIS L2 lat/lon maps, AMSR-E lat/lon maps, TRMM profiles and more.
Access to MLS parameters: MLS interface at
http://gdata1.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/daac-bin/G3/gui.cgi?instance_id=mls

Vertical Profile
Select a vertical profile range. The range selection is disabled unless a qualifying parameter is selected. In order to enable this option (and populate the list with values), select a 3D parameter. 3D parameters have at least three dimensions and are labeled with a '(3D)' in the 'Parameters' section.

NOTE:
Selected 3D parameters
must
have the same 3rd dimension (e.g., pressure, altitude, wavelength, etc.) units in order to enable the vertical level menu.
