INTER-COMPARISONS AMONG PASSIVE MICROWAVE SEA ICE CONCENTRATION PRODUCTS FROM FY-3D MWRI AND AMSR2
Passive microwave (PM) sensors on satellite can monitor sea ice distribution with their strengths of daylight- and weather-independent observations. Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) sensor aboard on the Chinese FengYun-3D (FY-3D) satellites was launched in 2017 and provides continuous observation f...

In this study, sea ice concentration (SIC) product is derived from brightness temperature (TB) data of MWRI, based on an Arctic Radiation and Turbulence Interaction Study Sea Ice (ASI) dynamic tie points algorithm. Our product is inter-compared with a published MWRI SIC product by the Enhanced NASA Team (NT2) algorithm, and three Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) SIC products by the ASI, Bootstrap (BST) and NT2 algorithm.
