Observational Data
The Microwave Radiometer (MWR) provides time-series measurements of column-integrated amounts of water vapor and liquid water. The instrument itself is a sensitive microwave receiver that detects the microwave emissions of the vapor and liquid water molecu
les in the atmosphere at two frequencies: 23.8 and 31.4 GHz.
