Evaluating tropospheric humidity from GPS radio occultation, radiosonde, and AIRS from high-resolution time series
While water vapor is the most important tropospheric greenhouse gas, it is also highly variable in both space and time, and water vapor concentrations range over 3 orders of magnitude in the troposphere. These properties challenge all observing systems to accurately measure and resolve the verti...
