A number of products are obtained from these, including thin sea ice [2], frost/thaw soils [3], high winds [4], ocean surface wind [5] and Sun brightness temperature [6], besides the main mission measurements of soil moisture and sea surface salinity [7][8]. This paper deals with the description and early results of some technology activities conducted by ESA applying the lessons learnt by SMOS and in preparation of an advanced L-band radiometer mission Postprint (author's final draft) |
