Microwave Radiometer for Cloud Carthography: A 22channel groundbased microwave radiometer for atmospheric research
A 22-channel Microwave Radiometer for Cloud Carthography (MICCY) for the profiling of tropospheric temperature, humidity, and cloud liquid water has been developed. The radiometer has 10 channels along the high-frequency wing of the 22.235 GHz water vapor line, 10 channels along the low-frequency side of the 60 GHz oxygen complex, and 2 channels at 90 GHz. Two features make the radiometer a uni...
متن کاملGround-Based Microwave Radiometer Measurements
This particular site and time of year was chosen by ARM because it offers a high probability of clearsky, and also a wide range of integrated water vapor amounts. To supplement the routine observing capabilities during the WVIOP2000, a powerful array of tools for measuring water vapor was deployed at the SGP Central Facility area. A comprehensive suite of airborne in situ and ground-based remote
متن کاملDesign and Development of a Ground-based Microwave Radiometer System
This paper presents the design and development of a ground-based microwave radiometer system (MWR) for the offshore oil platform. It will be used to provide long time series of geophysical parameters such as the sea-surface temperature, the near-surface wind speed and the sea ice type. The ground-based MWR is a five-frequency, dual-polarized microwave radiometer which is a total power type micr...
متن کاملSnow scattering signals in ground‐based passive microwave radiometer measurements
[1] This paper investigates the influence of snow microphysical parameters on the enhancement of ground‐based passive microwave brightness temperature (TB) measurements. In addition to multispectral passive microwave observations between 20 and 150 GHz, a 35 GHz cloud radar and a 2‐D video disdrometer for in situ measurements of snowfall were deployed as part of the “towards an optimal estimati...
متن کاملComparison of atmospheric parameters derived from GPS, VLBI and a ground-based microwave radiometer in Italy
Integrated Precipitable Water Vapor (IPWV) derived from GPS, water vapor radiometer WVR-1100 and RAdiosonde OBservation (RAOB) have been compared for the Cagliari site (Italy) on a seasonal and annual bases. The comparison analysis on estimating IPWV among the three independent techniques (GPS, WVR-110 and RAOB) has shown high accuracy equal to 0.136 cm with a bias of )0.049 cm throughout 1999....
