Basic data requirements for microwave radiometer systems [PDF]
Microwave radiometry has emerged over the last two decades to become an integral part of the field of environmental remote sensing. Numerous investigations were conducted to evaluate the use of microwave radiometry for atmospheric, oceanographic ...

Biases and Uncertainties in Radiosonde‐Based Precipitable Water Vapor
Abstract Precipitable water vapor (PWV) plays an important role in weather and climate phenomena. Accurate PWV measurements based on radiosonde observations are essential for assessing remote‐sensing measurements and long‐term trends. This study examines the performance of PWV algorithms, including their intrinsic biases and their sensitivity to ...

The investigation of convective updrafts (INCUS) mission includes three small satellites flying in the same orbit plane with 30–120 s separation to study why convective storms, heavy precipitation, and clouds occur exactly when and where they form.

Abstract This study develops a novel framework within the Weather Research and Forecast Model for modeling aerosol‐cloud‐lightning interactions. The framework explicitly represent aerosol‐cloud interactions by prescribing aerosols with two configurations: an idealized setup, where both cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nucleating particles (IN ...

Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.

Estimation of vertically integrated liquid water contents in the atmosphere
A 5-year project of "Antarctic Climate Research (ACR)" started in 1987. One of the main projects of the ACR is an observation of clouds and precipitation.

Abstract Soil moisture is an essential climate variable that controls the exchange of water and energy between land and atmosphere, directly impacting land surface feedbacks. Satellite‐derived soil moisture provides valuable large‐scale information, but long‐term applications are limited by sensor lifespans, retrieval noise, and systematic biases ...

Beyond SMAP: Can GNSS‐R Platforms Ensure Continuity of Global Soil Moisture Observations?
Abstract The absence of a definitive follow‐on strategy for the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, which has already surpassed its planned mission lifetime, presents a significant challenge for the hydrological science community. GNSS‐Reflectometry (GNSS‐R), which exploits reflected satellite navigation signals, has emerged as a rapidly ...
