Abstract:
The convective cloud system on 22—23 July 2002 in Yichang region is simulated with MM5 model. The results from MM5 are then used as the input to a 3D microwave radiative transfer model that calculated the upwelling radiance received by the radiometer aboard the satellite. It is found that the structure of the convective cloud has a strong influence on the upwelling microwave radiation.
