Abstract Convective heating and vertical motion are closely linked to each other and follow similar evolutionary paths over their convective life cycle. It has not yet been extensively explored, using observation, how such a collaborative evolution changes systematically from region to region over tropical oceans.

Spaceborne radar imaging is the key means to obtain the fine-resolution radar image of space targets. However, the nonuniform relative rotational motion caused by the high-speed orbital state leads to the degradation of the radar imaging performance.

The Effects of Ice Habit Models on Passive Microwave Snowfall Rate Retrievals
Abstract This work examines the impact of ice habit models on snowfall rate (SFR) derived from space‐borne passive microwave observations. SFR retrieval is highly sensitive to ice habit assumptions. Comparisons of the SFRs based on Cloud Profiling Radar, ERA5, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Stage IV indicate that dense and sphere ...

Application of Quasi-Continuous Waveform Coding in Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar
Quasi-continuous wave radar is an attempt to give consideration to the performance of pulse and continuous wave radar signals. However, it also has the shortcomings of both.

Extrapolation of Airborne Polarimetric and Interferometric SAR Data for Validation of Bio-Geo-Retrieval Algorithms for Future Spaceborne SAR Missions [PDF]
Spaceborne SAR system concepts and mission design is often based on algorithms developed and the experience gathered from airborne SAR experiments and associated dedicated campaigns. However, airborne SAR systems have better performance parameters than

Immediate Ice Stream and Shear Margin Response to Calving at Sermeq Kujalleq in Kangia, Greenland
Abstract The sensitivity of Greenland outlet glaciers to short‐term flow disturbances lacks observations to be well constrained in numerical models. Specifically, sudden gigaton‐scale calving events regularly occurring at major Greenland outlet glaciers like Sermeq Kujalleq in Kangia (SKK; also known as Jakobshavn Isbræ) are known to perturb background
