Outgassing, Temperature Gradients and the Radiometer Effect in LISA: A Torsion Pendulum Investigation [PDF]
Thermal modeling of the LISA gravitational reference sensor (GRS) includes such effects as outgassing from the proof mass and its housing and the radiometer effect.

Parameters for the depth of the ocean’s productive layer
Here we compare various parameters that are used to define the depth of the ocean’s productive layer, the euphotic zone, during the initiation of the spring phytoplankton bloom in the North Atlantic (47°N/20°W).

Design and Analysis of a Next-Generation Wide Field-of-View Earth Radiation Budget Radiometer
Climate on Earth is determined by the Earth Radiation Budget (ERB), which quantifies the incoming and outgoing radiative energy fluxes. The ERB can be monitored by non-scanning wide field-of-view radiometers, or by scanning narrow field-of-view ...

Variability of Microwave Scattering in a Stochastic Ensemble of Measured Rain Drops
While it has been proved that multiple scattering in the microwave frequencies has to be accounted for in precipitation retrieval algorithms, the effects of the random arrangements of drops in space has seldom been investigated.

Radiometric Resolution Analysis and a Simulation Model
Total power radiometer has a simple configuration and the best theoretical resolution. Gain fluctuations and calibration errors, however, can induce severe errors in the solved scene brightness temperature.

Feasibility study on application of microwave radiometry to monitor contamination level on insulator materials [PDF]
This paper introduces a novel method for monitoring contamination levels on high voltage insulators based on microwave radiometry. Present contamination monitoring solutions for high voltage insulators are only effective in predicting flashover risk when
