Anomalous Opaque Clouds Revealed by Collocated MODIS and CALIOP Retrievals

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract This paper examines discrepancies between cloud optical thickness (COT) retrievals from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud product, and cloud opacity measurements from the Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) lidar.

Aperture synthesis for microwave radiometers in space [PDF]

open access: yes
A technique is described for obtaining passive microwave measurements from space with high spatial resolution for remote sensing applications. The technique involves measuring the product of the signal from pairs of antennas at many different antenna ...

Multifrequency remote sensing of soil moisture [PDF]

open access: yes
Multifrequency sensor data collected at Guymon, Oklahoma and Dalhart, Texas using NASA's C-130 aircraft were used to determine which of the all-weather microwave sensors demonstrated the highest correlation to surface soil moisture over optimal bare soil

The Passive Microwave Remote Sensing of Soil Moisture: the Effect of Tilled Row Structure [PDF]

open access: yes
The tilled rowstructure is known to be one of the important factors affecting the observations of the microwave emission from a natural surface. Measurements of this effect were carried out with both I and X band radiometers mounted on a mobile truck on ...

Microwave emissions from snow [PDF]

open access: yes
The radiation emitted from dry and wet snowpack in the microwave region (1 to 100 GHz) is discussed and related to ground observations. Results from theoretical model calculations match the brightness temperatures obtained by truck mounted, airborne and ...

Measurement of soil moisture using remote sensing multisensor radiation techniques [PDF]

open access: yes
Theoretical modeling as well as laboratory and field measurement were coupled with analysis of aircraft data obtained from controlled sites in an effort to enhance understanding of the microwave response due to soil moisture so as to specify sensor ...
