Measuring sea ice concentration in the Arctic Ocean using SMOS

Carolina Gabarro, Antonio Turiel, Pedro Elosegui, Joaquim A. Pla-Resina, Marcos Portabella
2016 The Cryosphere Discussions  
We present a new method to estimate sea ice concentration in the Arctic Ocean using brightness temperature observations from the Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity (SMOS) interferometric satellite.  ...  We therefore argue that SMOS estimates can be a compelling complement to estimates of ice concentration of both thick and thin sea ice from other satellite sensors such as the Advanced Microwave Scanning  ...  season, the observed radiometric signature change.  ...

Application of a ground-based, multi-channel microwave radiometer to the alerting of low-level windshear at an airport

P.W. Chan, Y.F. Lee
2011 Meteorologische Zeitschrift  
Two approaches to the alerting of windshear have been studied, namely, the calculation of Brunt-Vaisala frequency and the standard deviation of the brightness temperature measured by a microwave radiometer  ...  The former tries to represent the stability of the boundary layer of the atmosphere (terrain-induced windshear tends to occur in stable boundary layer) and the latter tries to correlate the wind fluctuations  ...  /temperature inversions in the lowest part and in the topmost part of the boundary-layer temperature profile.  ...
