Modeling habitat suitability of wild rice (Zizania spp.) to inform restoration efforts in Michigan, U.S.A.

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 7, September 2024.
Wild rice (Zizania aquatica and Zizania palustris) has been an integral component of Michigan wetlands for thousands of years, but is disappearing today due to habitat loss. Identifying suitable habitats and associated environmental conditions for wild rice viability is a critical step toward guiding ongoing restoration efforts statewide.

Assessment for operational assimilation of horizontal line of sight winds from the European Space Agency's Aeolus at the Met Office

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 150, Issue 762, Page 2869-2887, July 2024 Part A.
Experiments assimilating horizontal line‐of‐sight winds from the European Space Agency's Aeolus satellite at the Met Office has shown numerous benefits to global weather forecasts. Improvements are seen across a broad range of forecast variables, and the impacts are comparable to assimilation of surface winds from scatterometers.

Joint estimation of sea ice and atmospheric state from microwave imagers in operational weather forecasting

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 150, Issue 763, Page 3796-3826, July 2024 Part B.
Sea‐ice concentration and state parameters are retrieved at the locations of microwave imager observations within an atmospheric data assimilation system. This allows the assimilation of microwave observations with strong surface sensitivities over sea ice and possible sea‐ice surfaces, with direct benefits to atmospheric forecasts.

Reconstruction of 3D DPR Observations Using GMI Radiances

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 5, 16 March 2024.
Abstract Three‐dimensional global precipitation observation is crucial for understanding climate and weather dynamics. While spaceborne precipitation radars provide precise but limited observations, passive microwave imagers are available much more frequently.

Sea ice concentration derived from temperature brightness data of the Microwave Radiation Imager sensors onboard the Chinese FengYun-3 satellites in the polar regions from 2010 to 2019

open access: yes, 2022
This sea ice concentration dataset (SIC) was derived from the re-calibrated brightness temperature of the Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) sensors. The MWRI sensors are onboard the Chinese second generation of sun-synchronous meteorological satellites ...
