Retrieval of Water Vapor Profiles from Microwave Radiometric Measurements near 90 and 183 GHz
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Upwelling radiometric measurements at 90 GHz and three side bands near 183 GHz are used to retrieve water vapor profiles over the ocean surface. An algorithm incorporating a new technique of handling moderate cloud cover ...
Retrieval of Total Precipitable Water Using Radiometric Measurements Near 92 and 183 GHz
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The strong water vapor absorption line at 183 GHz is explored in this paper for retrieval of total precipitable water in the atmosphere. This strong line has generally been utilized in the past for the profiling of the ...
The Effect of Clouds on Water Vapor Profiling from the Millimeter-Wave Radiometric Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Simultaneous measurements with the millimeter-wave imaging radiometer (MIR), cloud lidar system (CLS), and the MODIS airborne simulator (MAS) were made aboard the NASA ER-2 aircraft over the western Pacific Ocean on 17?18 ...
