Aeolus is the world's first spaceborne Doppler Wind Lidar, providing profiles of horizontal
line‐of‐sight (HLOS) wind retrievals. Numerical weather prediction (NWP) impact and error …

A high-resolution regional reanalysis of the Indian Monsoon Data Assimilation and Analysis
(IMDAA) project is made available to researchers for deeper understanding of the Indian …

Abstract The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) has developed the third Japanese global
atmospheric reanalysis, the Japanese Reanalysis for Three Quarters of a Century (JRA-3Q) …

While contemporary numerical weather prediction models represent the large‐scale
structure of moist atmospheric processes reasonably well, they often struggle to maintain …

This paper evaluates the microwave instruments onboard the latest Chinese polar-orbiting
satellite, Feng-Yun 3D (FY-3D). Comparing three months of observations from the …

This article describes a new radiance‐assimilation scheme for microwave‐imager
observations, which unifies the treatment of clear‐sky, cloudy and precipitation‐affected …

A 1-D variational system has been developed to process spaceborne measurements. It is an
iterative physical inversion system that finds a consistent geophysical solution to fit all …

The first Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) was launched in October 2003
aboard the Air Force Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F-16 Spacecraft. As …

Abstract The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission is a constellation-based
satellite mission designed to unify and advance precipitation measurements using both …

To simulate passive microwave radiances in all-sky conditions requires better knowledge of
the scattering properties of frozen hydrometeors. Typically, snow particles are represented …
