TROPICS -Atmospheric Vertical Temperature and Moisture Profiles: Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document
This Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) describes the theoretical background of the TROPICS Atmospheric Vertical Temperature and Moisture Profile (AVTP/AVMP) retrieval algorithms. It also includes TROPICS payload characteristics and the algorithm’s ancillary data (i.e., data coming from sources other than the TROPICS Space Vehicle). Details of the AVTP and AVMP, data product format can be found in the TROPICS Data User’s Guide. This ATBD will also contain the pre-launch testing completed to verify the algorithm. The TROPICS Data User’s Guide will contain the post-launch validation.
