Modeling Snow and Ice Microwave Emissions in the Arctic for a Multi‐Parameter Retrieval of Surface and Atmospheric Variables From Microwave Radiometer Satellite Data

Abstract Monitoring surface and atmospheric parameters—like water vapor—is challenging in the Arctic, despite the daily Arctic‐wide coverage of spaceborne microwave radiometer data. This is mainly due to the difficulties in characterizing the sea ice surface emission: sea ice and snow microwave emis...
