Comparison between TOVS/HIRS and SSM/T-2-derived upper-tropospheric humidity

Article Abstract:

Infrared and microwave upper-tropospheric humidities (UTH) have been found to be largely similar. The minor differences between them arise from different data interpretations concerning clouds. As such a priori information from satellite retrievals should be as accurate as possible to prevent biases in the UTHs. The water vapor absorption/emission radiances garnered from Television Infrared Observation Satellite Operational Vertical Sounder/High-Resolution Infrared Sounder is found to be higher than those obtained from Special Sensor Microwave Water Vapor Profiler.
