LEARN ABOUT GLOBAL

The Global Infrared Satellite image shows

clouds by their temperature. Red and blue
areas indicate cold (high) cloud tops.
Infrared (IR) radiation is electromagnetic
radiation whose wavelength is longer than
that of visible light, but shorter than that of
terahertz radiation and microwaves. Weather
satellites equipped with scanning
radiometers produce thermal or infrared
images which can then enable a trained
analyst to determine cloud heights and
types, to calculate land and surface water
temperatures, and to locate ocean surface
features.
