RISDetermination of an Amazon Hot Reference Target for the On-Orbit Calibration of Microwave Radiometers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A physically based model is developed to determine hot calibration reference brightness temperatures (TBs) over depolarized regions in the Amazon rain forest. The model can be used to evaluate the end-to-end calibration ...
Validation and Development of Melting Layer Models Using Constraints by Active/Passive Microwave Observations of Rain and the Wind-Roughened Ocean Surface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A physically based method is developed to estimate the microphysical structure of the melting layer in stratiform rain using airborne observations by a dual-frequency radar and a 10.7-GHz radiometer. The method employs a ...
