The current operational standard for hurricane wind speed and rain rate measurements is the Stepped Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR), which is a nadir viewing passive microwave airborne remote sensor [1]. The Hurricane Imaging Radiometer, HIRAD, will extend the nadir viewing SFMR capability to provide wide swath images of wind speed and rain rate, while flying on a high altitude aircraft. HIRAD was first flown in the Genesis and Rapid Intensification Processes, GRIP, NASA hurricane field experiment in 2010. This paper reports on geophysical retrieval results and provides hurricane images from GRIP flights. An overview of the HIRAD instrument and the radiative transfer theory based, wind speed/rain rate retrieval algorithm is included. Results are presented for hurricane wind speed and rain rate for Earl and Karl, with comparison to collocated SFMR retrievals and WP3D Fuselage Radar images for validation purposes.","PeriodicalId":309298,"journal":{"name":"2014 13th Specialist Meeting on Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing of the Environment (MicroRad)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127411216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The flight path includes two lakes of different sizes and, additionally, a forested area and an open, mostly agricultural area next to the lakes. This allows us to compare the behavior of the brightness temperature of snow on lake ice with that of snow on terrain. The main airborne instrument is our HUTRAD system, which operates at 6.9, 10.65, 18.7, 23.8, and 36.5 GHz, providing data for both vertical and horizontal polarization at an incidence angle of 50 degrees off nadir. The antenna beamwidth is 3 to 5 degrees depending on frequency. Additional data have been collected with our HUT-2D interferometric imaging radiometer, which operates at 1.4 GHz and looks straight down covering an incidence angle range up to 25 degrees with a swath of 95 per cent of the flight altitude. The radiometers are accommodated on our Skyvan research aircraft. Insitu measurements have been made simultaneously with airborne data collection. We have covered a variety of conditions including dry snow/ice, occasional water on top of ice, moist snow surface, and the melting season. In order to study the effect of diurnal temperature variations during the melting season we have collected data both in the morning (dry refrozen snow) and afternoon (moist topmost snow layer).","PeriodicalId":309298,"journal":{"name":"2014 13th Specialist Meeting on Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing of the Environment (MicroRad)","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127187107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The GPM Intersatellite Calibration Working Group (aka XCAL) has the responsibility to perform the radiometric calibration process to normalize all radiometers to a common source, the GPM Microwave Imager, which serves as a radiometric transfer standard. Prior to the launch of GPM instrument on February 28, 2014, the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager has been used as a proxy for the GMI to develop procedures and data analysis algorithms for inter-comparing two similar, but not identical, radiometers. In this regard, this paper assesses the long-term radiometric calibration stability of TMI relative to WindSat polarimetric radiometer. CFRSL conducted two independent inter-comparisons over oceans in XCAL year (July 2005 - June 2006) and C Y 2011, and results are presented, which demonstrate deciKelvin relative stability over this greater than five-year period.","PeriodicalId":309298,"journal":{"name":"2014 13th Specialist Meeting on Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing of the Environment (MicroRad)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130110486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
