Comparison of microwave satellite humidity data and radiosonde profiles: A survey of European stations

A method to compare upper tropospheric humidity (UTH) from satellite and radiosonde data has been applied to the European radiosonde stations. The method uses microwave data as a benchmark for monitoring the performance of the stations. The present study utilizes three years (2001-2003) of data...
