RISRetrieval of Water Vapor Profiles from GPS/MET Radio Occultations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Present Global Positioning System Meteorology (GPS/MET) refractivity profiles cannot distinguish between refractivity effects due to water vapor and those due to air density. Current methods of resolving the ambiguity rely ...
A Microwave Occultation Observing System Optimized to Characterize Atmospheric Water, Temperature, and Geopotential via Absorption
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new remote sensing concept extrapolated from the GPS occultation concept is presented in which the signal frequencies are chosen to determine atmospheric water, temperature, and the geopotential of atmospheric pressure ...
GPS Sounding of the Atmosphere from Low Earth Orbit: Preliminary Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper provides an overview of the methodology of and describes preliminary results from an experiment called GPS/MET (Global Positioning System/Meteorology), in which temperature soundings are obtained from a low ...
