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 one-dimensional radia...
