A layer-averaged relative humidity profile retrieval for microwave observations: design and results for the Megha-Tropiques payload
A statistical method trained and optimized to retrieve seven-layer relative humidity (RH) profiles is presented and evaluated with measurements from radiosondes. The method makes use of the microwave payload of the Megha-Tropiques platform, namely the SAPHIR sounder and the MADRAS imager. The approa...
