Variational retrieval of temperature and humidity profiles using rain rates versus microwave brightness temperatures

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2004
AbstractThis paper assesses the performance of two different approaches for the retrieval of temperature and humidity profiles from the satellite passive microwave measurements of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and of the Special Sensor Microwave Imager in rainy areas.

Variational Retrieval of Temperature and Humidity Profiles from TRMM Precipitation Data

Monthly Weather Review, 2000
Abstract This paper examines the performance of a one-dimensional variational (1DVAR) assimilation of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite-derived surface rainfall rates from the Microwave Imager TMI. Temperature and specific humidity profiles are retrieved that are consistent with both observed and model short-range forecast rain rates.

The COST 720 temperature, humidity, and cloud profiling campaign: TUC

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2006
The international COST 720 Temperature, humidity, and Cloud (TUC) profiling experiment was organized over three months in winter 2003/2004 at Payerne, Switzerland. Various in-situ and active/passive ground-based remote sensing systems, including three microwave radiometers, a cloud radar and a wind profiler, were operated at the same location.
