The U.S. National Meteorological Center (NMC) has updated its global forecast model and is currently comparing results from the new model to results from the operational model. One updated parameter in the new model is the horizontal covariance of satellite temperature errors. The spatial covariance is a measure of how temperature errors in the same pressure layer are correlated horizontally in space. This reprint reports on the covariance values obtained using data from the NOAA-10 polar orbiting satellite. (jhd)
