Physical Retrieval of Rain Rate from Ground-Based Microwave Radiometry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Because of its clear physical meaning, physical methods are more often used for space-borne microwave radiometers to retrieve the rain rate, but they are rarely used for ground-based microwave radiometers that are very sensitive to rainfall.

Improved constraints on primordial non-Gaussianity for the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe 5-yr data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present new constraints on the non-linear coupling parameter fnl with the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) data. We use an updated method based on the spherical Mexican hat wavelet (SMHW) which provides improved constraints on the fnl ...

Continuous Time Series of Water Vapor Profiles from a Combination of Raman Lidar and Microwave Radiometer

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
In this paper, we present a method to retrieve continuous water vapor profiles from a combination of a Raman lidar and a microwave radiometer. The integrated water vapor from the microwave radiometer is used to calibrate the Raman lidar operationally ...
