Title
Aquarius Third Stokes Parameter Measurements: Initial Results.
Abstract
This letter reports a first look at the polarimetric (third Stokes parameter) channel on the Aquarius L-band radiometer that was launched in June of 2011 on the Aquarius/Satélite de Aplicaciones Cientificas (SAC)-D observatory. The primary purpose of the polarimetric channel is to provide an in situ measure of Faraday rotation which can be important for remote sensing at L-band, particularly in th...
