A feasibility study for the retrieval of the total column precipitable water vapour from satellite observations in the blue spectral range
We present a new algorithm for satellite retrievals of the atmospheric water vapour column in the blue spectral range. The water vapour absorption cross section in the blue spectral range is much weaker than in the red spectral range. Thus the detection limit and the uncertainty of individual observ...
