The Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM / I)
radiometers provide brightness temperatures at three different frequencies (19.35, 37.0 and 85.5 GHz) from which are estimated: wind speed when not raining, integrated atmospheric water vapor content, liquid water content, and a rain index.
The endemic cloud cover at high latitudes prevents monitoring of ocean temperatures by IR radiometers, and microwave
radiometers provide the only way to continually measure SST in these vital Arctic regions, which are now experiencing rapid climate change.
