The RAMMB slider is awesome. The public access is total.
I wish all science was like this.


I can't see you finding anything like slider anywhere else. Three satelliites in geostationary orbit giving you everything all the time.

From NASA articles
On 12 March, GOES-17 joined GOES-16 (launched in 2016) in geosynchronous orbit at 22,200 mi (35,700 km) above Earth. Himawari 8 occurred at 05:16 UTC on 7 October 2014 and reached its operational geostationary orbit in October 2014, at 140.7 degrees East.

https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/BAMS-D-17-0272.1
SLIDER provides access to every pixel from the imagers aboard the GOES-16, GOES-17, and Himawari-8 satellites in real time.

The experimental version of SLIDER was unveiled for public use in June 2017 by the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA) in partnership with NOAA’s Regional and Mesoscale Meteorology Branch, collocated at Colorado State University.

SLIDER provides full-resolution imagery from all spectral bands, for all sectors, from GOES-16’s and GOES-17’s Advanced Baseline Imagers (ABI) and Himawari-8’s Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI). Compared to the previous generation of GOES satellites, the data volume coming from the ABI instruments has increased dramatically. In addition to three times the number of the spectral bands and four times the spatial resolution, the increased temporal resolution means that new imagery is available every 15 min for the full disk sector, every 5 min for the contiguous U.S. sector, and every minute for each of the two mesoscale domain sectors.


If that's the preference (frequency, i.e hourly) no, i did not come across any better while I would have to verify if the entire surface is really pictured hourly. I'm not that savvy in satellite imagery hence can't tell, perhaps I have to dig a bit deeper into the matter.

Until now i was believing that they pass once per day max but things change permanently.

Thanks for pointing at it.

Great, that's the part that evaded me, that's impressing and of course that sheds a new (for me) light on the matter, will re-add it to my bookmarks of course.

Thank YOU  8)

RAMMB Slider is indeed fantastic. I might have to get a faster connection for this alone!

Here's a gif of 3 recent images of the Beaufort: before, during, and after the recent cyclone. They're not evenly spaced, but chosen for less cloud cover. I've used an overlay ("Flight Level Based Cloud Layers", opacity almost minimum) to emphasize where the clouds are.

Click.

Before-after cross-fade of middle part of the melt edge. Very substantial damage already apparent. Click.

Before-after cross-fade (improved cross-fade settings) of Eastern corner of Beaufort. Impressive damage. Click.

What strikes me most about this, and I've been noticing this phenomenon during this period of low-to-average extent changes, is how with all the loss of area/volume, the ice edge barely moves.

This is why we will, much like 2012, get a big drop in extent, whether suddenly or over some extended period as enough of that much melts out for the extent to fall.

Sept. minimum still possible, though I'm pretty strongly in the camp of my July poll response: 2nd all-time, less than 4M ASIE (Jaxa), but if *all* the weak ice goes, all bets are off.

  I agree with everything you said, and appreciate it.  I just wanted to clarify that the orbits are actually sun-synchronous. Each satellite makes 14 passes a day, taking roughly 102 minutes to complete an orbit.  The ~3,000km wide field of view allows each pass to image from roughly 68° to 5° on the far side of the pole, spanning 28°.  So above 85° is imaged every pass.
  I believe that the slider actually only incorporates two of them, SUOMI and JPSS-1, which orbit opposite each other, giving us 51 minute intervals.  SUOMI is actually beyond its planned 5 year expected lifespan, but more of these satellites are planned over the next decade.

Yes, mine is shorter. rammb eats up my broadband volume. Thanks for the links. I definitely couldn't go searching for these.


Here's my effort to make RAMMB a bit more user friendly for those who have internet struggles with the demands of the slider.  I can add more upon request (including gifs if needed and as time allows), note that the "geocolor" and "natural color" appear the most resource intensive. 

I'm providing a list of links to locations around the arctic using band I2 (my favorite), with the minimum number of frames (6), and as a still image.  My hope is that this'll be gentler on this with metered/throttled/slower connections.

These are not the maximum zoom, but can be zoomed in once more.

Sure seems like it reacts quickly to winds, and it's marching towards the Atlantic, as it has for the most part.

Speaking of winds, they have turned southerly over the Laptev and points north, and should persist for some time.

Contrast boosted.

Now that polar night is descending on the arctic, it's time to switch to band I04, shortwave IR discerns temperature.  I inverted the colors and enhanced the contrast, I think it will make for a good substitute for visible bands.  I find the low light band has issues with some form of "glare".

This is the area north of Svalbard at roughly 82.5°N,10°E, that has been discussed before, that "swirl" still evident.   The gif is short, fighting the clouds

Stratospheric smoke from Australian bushfires

Quote
GOES-16 (GOES-East) Near-Infrared “Cirrus” (1.37 µm) images during the 19-24 January 2019 period (above) showed a semi-circular pall of smoke that originated from Australian bushfires  — outbreaks of pyrocumulonimbus clouds that occurred in late December 2019 and early January 2020 injected large amounts of smoke into the lower stratosphere, and this smoke drifted eastward across the South Pacific Ocean. The 1.37 µm spectral band does a good job at detecting light scattered by airborne particles such as ice crystals, smoke, volcanic ash, dust, etc.; the areal extent of the smoke was most apparent approaching sunset on each day, due to enhanced forward scattering.

Here is the 300MB GIF directly. It takes a while to load but worth it!

     How weird is it for the ice at the North Pole to be cracking up this early?  That plus apparently strong Fram Export looks ominous.

Cracks per se are not too weird, but i think those leads developing are rather big.

On the other hand, when there are big leads, a lot of heat from the ocean water is transferred into the air, cooling down the upper water layer. I don't know if this is a net good or bad.

Band M8 showing a change in snow consistency over the Laptev.  This is either rain or wet snow in my humble opinion.
