The so-called Advanced scatterometer (ASCAT), onboard MetOp-A satellite was successfully launched on October 19 2006. ASCAT derived sea surface wind field observations are well within the mission accuracy requirements. An important part of the Numerical Weather Prediction Satellite Application Facility (NWP-SAF) ASCAT Data Wind Processor (AWDP) is the wind data quality control (QC). This paper shows the implementation of a new QC procedure, based on the wind inversion residual, which significantly improves the effectiveness of the scatterometer wind data QC
The ASCAT level 1b data are provided by EUMETSAT. The software used in this work has been developed through the EUMETSAT Satellite Application Facilities (SAFs)
