Re: Satellite Image Neede

Cloud cover is going to limit your options (as it does for many aspects of satellite remote sensing). There are satellites that acquire radar data (synthetic aperture radar, SAR) that can see through clouds, but I'm not sure they would show anything that you need to see, and you may have to pay for ...

Re: Satellite Image Neede

Hello, What spatial resolution are you seeking? The highest resolution from NASA satellites is from Landsat, which is 15 meters, but Landsat does not provide full global coverage daily, it is commanded and scheduled for observations. You may be able to get a view with 250 meter resolution MODIS band...

Re: Land Surface Temperature

I suggest using the Giovanni system, https://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov/ . Search for "surface temperature". There are several data products available, both from satellite instrument observations and reanalysis models. Then you can create an area-averaged time series for your time period of in...

Re: FOG STUDY IN THE NORTHERN PLAINS INDIA

Kancha, I would suggest starting with the MERRA-2 and AIRS data sets from the GES DISC. MERRA-2 has numerous meteorological variables, and the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) provides temperature and humidity data which can also be examined as vertical profiles. Below is a search URL for Dew Poi...
