Relative Humidity Correction Method of Microwave Radiometer Combined with Cloud Radar

open access: yes应用气象学报
The microwave radiometer can detect and retrieve temperature and humidity profiles with high spatial and temporal resolution throughout the day. However, microwave radiometers have few detection frequencies in the middle and upper layers, making them ...

A review of the FATIMA Yellow Sea field campaign research

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The FATIMA marine fog project took place over the Sable Island region of eastern Canada (summer 2022) and the Yellow Sea of the Republic of Korea (ROK, summer 2023). Its goals are to improve marine fog monitoring and forecasting. Instrumented multiple research vessels, aircraft, tethered balloon and autonomous systems, ocean observation sites, and ...

Time Series Consistency of Passive Microwave Sensors (1978–2023) Brightness Temperature Data for Snow Depth Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Passive microwave remote sensing offers all-weather, all-day observations, but sensor inconsistencies hinder long-term continuity and multisensor integration for surface parameters estimation. This study proposed methods to improve brightness temperature

Whitecap Observations by Microwave Radiometers: With Discussion on Surface Roughness and Foam Contributions

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Ocean surface whitecaps manifest surface wave breaking. Most of the whitecap data reported in the literature are based on optical observations through photographic or video recording.

Towards improving Arctic mixed‐phase cloud representation in the ECMWF model using MOSAiC observations

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract The presence of Arctic clouds plays a crucial role in the evolution of the surface temperature of Arctic sea ice. However, large biases in cloud representation remain in state‐of‐the‐art weather and climate models. In this study, we use observational data from the one‐year Arctic ship campaign Multi‐disciplinary drifting Observatory for the ...

The relationship between equatorial wave interaction and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study examines the statistical relationship between co‐occurring equatorial waves and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia. Heavy rainfall is more closely related to combined wave activity than to individual waves in many regions of Southeast Asia. The figure shows GPM–IMERG rainfall (shading) and ERA5 850‐hPa winds (vectors) composited on days when ...

Observations and numerical simulations of a valley‐exit wind in the Alpine Bolzano basin

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The evolution and spreading of the nocturnal valley‐exit wind flowing from the Isarco Valley into the Bolzano basin, in the Italian Alps, are found to be influenced by the basin temperature stratification. Measurements and high‐resolution simulations show that a cold‐air pool favors an upward trajectory of the flow at the exit of the valley.

Global evaluation of fast radiative transfer model coefficients for early meteorological satellite sensors [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques
RTTOV (the Radiative Transfer for TOVS code, where TOVS is the TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder) coefficients are evaluated using a large, independent dataset of 25 000 atmospheric model profiles as a robust test of the diverse 83 training profiles ...
