A hyperspectral microwave radiometer centred on 6 spectral regions to sound the atmospheric temperature and water vapour profiles from 54 to 183 GHz. Details in table below. About each centre frequency the spectrum is sampled at high spectral resolution within the bandwidth specified.
This is a new development funded by UKSA and Spire.
Cross-track +/- 49 deg
Note: a red tag indicates satellites no longer operational, a green tag indicates operational satellites, a blue tag indicates future satellites
