Validating clear air absorption models using ground-based microwave radiometers and vice-versa

Microwave radiometer observations are compared with various radiative transfer model calculations based on simultaneous radiosondes. This analysis uses observations from Payerne, Switzerland, in cloud free conditions during the Temperature Humidity and Cloud (TUC) experiment in winter 2003/04. The r...
