Abstract: In light of previous theoretical calculations, an empirical-statistical analysis using satellite multifrequency dual polarized passive microwave data to detect rainfall areas over land was performed. The addition of ...

Abstract: At 37 GHz, the frequency at which the Nimbus 6 Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer (ESMR 6) measures upwelling radiance, it has been shown theoretically that the atmospheric scattering and the relative independence ...
