Welcome to the FIRE Arctic Satellite Page. This site was developed to provide near realtime NOAA-12 & 14 AVHRR satellite imagery, orbital predictions, and weather information to support the SHEBA , ARM , and FIRE Arctic Cloud Experiment in Fairbanks, Alaska during the period of May - August 1998. This work is being directed by Principal Investigator Patrick Minnis of the Atmospheric Sciences Division  at the NASA Langley Research Center  located in Hampton, Virginia.
