Comparison of satellite limb-sounding humidity climatologies of the uppermost tropical troposphere

Comparison of satellite limb-sounding humidity climatologies of the uppermost tropical troposphere

Humidity climatologies of the tropical uppermost troposphere from satellite limb emission measurements have been compared. Four instruments are considered; UARS-MLS, Odin-SMR, and Aura-MLS operating in the microwave region, and MIPAS in the infrared region. A reference for the comparison is obtained...
