Temperature and Moisture Sounding Performance of Current and Prospective Microwave Instruments under All-Sky Conditions

We provide consistent theoretical and empirical assessments of the major driving factors of the information content and retrieval performance for current and potential future microwave (MW) sounders. For the specific instrument concepts assessed, we find that instrument noise is a major driver, impa...
