Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Key Findings: An assimilation methodology is established for the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder (TMS) flying on CubeSats in sun‐synchronous and inclined orbits, and in all cloud scenes. The TMS has a significant impact on weather forecast lead times up to 3 days in the Tropics in a research‐quality numerical weather prediction setting, and yields water ...

THIN ICE AREA EXTRACTION IN THE SEA OF OKHOTSK FROM GCOM-W1/AMSR2 DATA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016 Passive microwave radiometers on-board satellites can penetrate clouds and can monitor the global sea ice distribution on daily basis. The authors have developed an algorithm to extract thin ice area in the Sea of Okhotsk from the passive microwave ...

Microwave Radiometer (MWR) Handbook [PDF]
, 2006 The Microwave Radiometer (MWR) provides time-series measurements of column-integrated amounts of water vapor and liquid water. The instrument itself is essentially a sensitive microwave receiver. That is, it is tuned to measure the microwave emissions of the vapor and liquid water molecules in the atmosphere at specific frequencies.

Moisture inversions in the central Arctic: Product assessment and long‐wave radiative effect
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study evaluates the integrated water vapour and the vertical distribution of water vapour of state‐of‐the‐art reanalyses, weather forecast models, and ground‐ and space‐based remote‐sensing products in the central Arctic. A particular focus lies on the representation of humidity inversions and the quantification of the long‐wave radiative effect ...

Noise Mitigation of the SMOS L1C Multi-Angle Brightness Temperature Based on the Lookup Table
Remote SensingOwing to the inherently lower sensitivity of microwave aperture synthesis radiometers (ASRs), Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite brightness temperature (TB) measurements exhibit significantly greater system noise than real-aperture ...

Microwave Radiometer Instability Due to Infrequent Calibration [PDF]
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020 We directly quantify the effect of infrequent calibration on the stability of microwave radiometer temperature measurements (where a power measurement for the unknown source is acquired at a fixed time, but calibration data are acquired at variable earlier times) with robust and nonrobust implementations of a new metric.

A review of the FATIMA Yellow Sea field campaign research
Quarterly 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 ...
