SNPP serves as a bridge between the Earth Observing System (EOS) satellites, including the Terra and Aqua, and the next-generation NASA-NOAA Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS). It extends the measurement series initiated with EOS Terra and AQUA by providing a bridge between NASA's EOS missions and the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS). The coldest cloud tops (colder than 230 K) generally occur over Antarctica and the high clouds in the tropics. For 20 years, Terra, the flagship Earth observing satellite, has chronicled changes on Earth. ... Scientists are using data from NASA’s latest series of satellites to further examine the physical and chemical processes of land, ocean, atmosphere, and cryosphere. Aqua and Terra have comparable zonal cloud top pressures, with Aqua having somewhat higher clouds (cloud top pressures lower by 100 hPa) over land due to afternoon deep convection.
