Assessing Design and Deployment Strategies for Future Microwave-Sounding Missions

CISESS Scientist Dr. Zaizhong Ma and co-authors, including CISESS Deputy Director Dr. Hugo Berbery, recently published a study on the expected forecast impact of future microwave sounding instruments planned under NOAA’s Near Earth Orbit Network (NEON) program. This work was done using the Ensemble of Data Assimilations (EDA) for the Integrated Forecasting System in collaboration with the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).

Satellite Microwave Data for Water Vapor Retrievals

CISESS scientists Chris Grassotti and Yong-Keun Lee coauthored a paper published on January 30th that showed that satellite microwave observations at 23.8 GHz improve the accuracy of total precipitable water (TPW) products over land as well as oceans. This study was motivated by concerns of channel overlap from new 5G communication frequencies.
