In order to explore applicable inverse model and method for continent including the plateau, in this study authors use an improved simultaneous physical retrieval method hereafter referred to as the ISPRM, for computing meteorological parameters from NOAA-10 satellite TOVS data. The retrieval results verified by nearby radiosondesshow that the ISPRM is more applicable for the continental plateau.展开更多

The non-linear effect in the linear calibration curve induces a deviation of 1.5 degrees (k) of brightness temperature in the tenth channel (8.3 um, water vapor absorption) of the HIRS/2 and the non-linear effect affects the other channels to a different extent. Based on analyzing non- linearity in two-point calibration curve, a tri-point calibration equation is given. A numerical test of effects of the linear and non-linear calibration models on the accuracy of atmospheric temperature retrievals is carried out.展开更多
