Publisher Summary The basic concept of satellite altimetry is to measure the range from the
satellite to the sea surface. The altimeter transmits a short pulse of microwave radiation with …

A method of remotely sensing integrated cloud liquid water over the oceans using
spaceborne passive measurements from the special sensor microwave/imager (SSM/I) is …

The Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I), first placed into operation in July 1987, has
been making measurements of earth-emitted radiation for over eight years. These data are …

The special sensor microwave imager (SSM/I) is a microwave radiometer having dual‐
polarized channels at 19.35, 37, and 85.5 GHz and a vertically polarized channel at 22.235 …

The advanced microwave sounding unit (AMSU) was finally launched in May 1998 aboard
the NOAA 15 satellite. Algorithms are provided for retrieving the total precipitable water …

For pt. II see ibid., vol. 33, no. 1, p. 138-46 (1995). The sole mission function of the
TOPEX/Poseidon microwave radiometer (TMR) is to provide corrections for the altimeter …

A method is presented to infer cloud liquid water path (LWP in kg/m 2) over the ocean from
passive microwave measurements of SSM/I. The algorithm to retrieve LWP is based on …
