Sea Surface Temperature Retrieval From the FY-3D MWRI Measurements
Sea surface temperature (SST) is a key climate variable, which affects the behavior of the Earthâ\euro™s atmosphere. In this paper, a method coupled with microwave sea surface emissivities (SSEs) is developed to retrieve SST from the intercalibrated measurements acquired by the Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) on Fengyun 3D (FY-3D) satellite.
