Intercalibration of FY-3C MWRI Against GMI Using the Ocean Microwave Radiative Transfer Model
This work addresses the intercalibration of the Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) on the Chinese second-generation polar-orbiting meteorological satellite Fengyun 3C (FY-3C) against the Microwave Imager (GMI) on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM)

Abstract The development of harmonized, standardized, and integrated environmental observation systems is a key challenge in Earth system science. Such capability is essential for advancing the interdisciplinary research needed to improve understanding of the Earth system and support global sustainability.

Abstract Many intraplate volcanic chains are explained as hotspot trails formed by plate motion over mantle plumes, yet some deviate from this model. The Rodrigues Ridge, a volcanic lineament extending eastward from the Réunion hotspot track toward the Central Indian Ridge (CIR), is one such case.

Inter-Calibration of AMSU-A Window Channels
More than one decade of observations from the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A (AMSU-A) onboard the polar-orbiting satellites NOAA-15 to NOAA-19 and European Meteorological Operational satellite program-A (MetOp-A) provided global information on ...

The Effect of Error Non-Orthogonality on Triple Collocation Analyses
Triple collocation analysis is an established technique for calculating the relative linear intercalibration coefficients and observation error variances for physical quantities measured simultaneously in space and time by three different observation ...

On the Assessment of Sinking Particle Fluxes From In Situ Particle Size Distributions
Abstract The biological carbon pump is a vital component of the global carbon cycle, particularly through the sinking of particulate organic carbon (POC) into the ocean interior. Particle size distribution (PSD) observations from the Underwater Vision Profiler (UVP) have been widely used to quantify sinking POC fluxes.

Inter-calibration of polar imager solar channels using SEVIRI [PDF]
Accurate calibration of satellite imagers is a prerequisite for using their measurements in climate applications. Here we present a method for the inter-calibration of geostationary and polar-orbiting imager solar channels based on regressions of ...

Abstract Accurate rainfall information underpins land‐surface water budgets, extreme‐weather analyses, and climate‐model evaluation. Yet in many regions, rain gauge networks are sparse, making conventional calibration of bottom up rainfall products difficult. To address this, we propose a self calibration framework that removes the need for a dedicated
