Hot Load Temperature Correction For The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Microwave Imager (Tmi)

Keywords

Abstract

The TRMM Microwave Imager has provided a nearly two-decade satellite remote sensing data set for studying climate change, and the legacy data processing is in progress and will be released in late 2017. During this reprocessing, it was discovered that the hot-load suffers an occasional transient solar intrusion, which resulted in a small systematic brightness temperature error. This paper describes an approach to remove this error.
