Three-dimensional effects in polarization signatures as observed from precipitating clouds by low frequency ground-based microwave radiometers
Consistent negative polarization differences (i.e. differences between the vertical and the horizontal brightness temperature) are observed when looking at precipitating systems by ground-based radiometers at slant angles. These signatures can be partially explained by onedimensional radiative transfer computations that include oriented non-spherical raindrops. However some cases are characteri...
متن کاملThin Ice Area Extraction in the Sea of Okhotsk from Gcom-w1/amsr2 Data
Passive microwave radiometers on-board satellites can penetrate clouds and can monitor the global sea ice distribution on daily basis. The authors have developed an algorithm to extract thin ice area in the Sea of Okhotsk from the passive microwave sensor AMSR2 on-board GCOM-W1 satellite. The algorithm uses the brightness temperature scatter plots of AMSR2 19GHz polarization difference(V–H) vs ...
متن کاملA Study on Extracting the Trend of Thin Ice Distribution in the Sea of Okhotsk Using Amsr-e and Amsr2 Data
Passive microwave radiometers onboard satellite can penetrate clouds and can monitor the global sea ice distribution on daily basis. It is not easy to extract sea ice thickness information from satellite data. In 2012, the authors have developed a method to detect thin ice area using the brightness temperature data derived from the passive microwave sensor AMSR-E onboard Aqua satellite. The bas...
متن کاملCharacterization of Precipitating Clouds by Ground-Based Measurements with the Triple-Frequency Polarized Microwave Radiometer ADMIRARI
A groundbreaking new-concept multiwavelength dual-polarized Advanced Microwave Radiometer for Rain Identification (ADMIRARI) has been built and continuously operated in two field campaigns: the Convective and Orographically Induced Precipitation Study (COPS) and the European Integrated Project on Aerosol Cloud Climate Air Quality Interactions (EUCAARI). The radiometer has 6 channels working in ...
متن کاملThin Ice Area Extraction Using Amsr-e Data in the Sea of Okhotsk
Passive microwave sensors onboard satellites, such as SSMI or AMSR-E, can penetrate clouds and can monitor the global sea ice distribution on daily basis. However, since the footprint size of passive microwave sensors are rather large, approx. 38x30kmfor SSM/I 37GHz and approx.8x14km for ASMR-E 37GHz, extraction of sea ice thickness with passive microwave sensors is not easy. In this study, we ...
