Analyse du potentiel de la radiométrie infrarouge thermique pour la caractérisation des nuages de glace en Arctique
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An important goal, within the context of improving climate change modelling, is to enhance our understanding of aerosols and their radiative effects (notably their indirect impact as cloud condensation nuclei). The cloud optical depth (COD) and average ice particle size of thin ice clouds (TICs) are two key parameters whose variations could strongly influence radiative effects and climate in the Arctic environment. Our objective was to assess the potential of using multi-band thermal radiance measurements of zenith sky radiance for retrieving COD and effective particle diameter (Deff) of TICs in the Arctic. We analyzed and quantified the sensitivity of thermal radiance on many parameters, such as COD, Deff, water vapor content, cloud bottom altitude and thickness, size distribution and shape. Using the sensitivity of IRT to COD and Deff, the developed retrieval technique is validated in comparison with retrievals from LIDAR and RADAR. Retrievals were applied to ground-based thermal infrared data acquired for 100 TICs at the high-Arctic PEARL observatory in Eureka, Nunavut, Canada and were validated using AHSRL LIDAR and MMCR RADAR data. The results of the retrieval method were used to successfully extract COD up to values of 3 and to separate TICs into two types : TIC1 characterized by small crystals (Deff< 30 microns) and TIC2 by large ice crystals (Deff> 30 microns, up to 300 microns). Inversions were performed across two polar winters. At the end of this research, we proposed different alternatives to apply our methodology in the Arctic.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
