RGB Derivation • Analysis of multispectral (red-green-blue, RGB) satellite image composites can be used to improve understanding of thermodynamic and / or dynamic features associated with the development of significant weather events (cyclones, hurricanes, intense convection, turbulence, etc.). • The enhanced water vapor imaging capabilities of the Advanced Baseline Imager on GOES-16,-17 satellites provide a unique opportunity to demonstrate this capability through a comparison of the Air Mass
