Abstract


The performance and characteristics of FY-3C MWHTS in orbit are presented in this paper. Then it uses surface and profile reanalysis non-rainy data from NCEP and ECMWF in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from Jan, 2014 to May, 2015 and takes advantage of MonoRTM model to simulate brightness temperatures according to the MWHTS channel assignment, and validate by MWHTS measured data. Furthermore, a temperature and humidity retrieving mode is established to retrieve global atmospheric profiles and verified by two WMO stations located in mainland and over ocean. Finally, it utilizes FY-3C MWHTS brightness temperature data observed in orbit from JAN to DEC of 2014 to realize and analyze the space-time distribution of atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, especially for them in different pressure level in Oct, 2014.
