Short summary
Forecast indices commonly used in operational meteorology can be computed from temperature and humidity profiles retrieved from a ground-based microwave radiometer.
The values of radiometer-derived forecast indices agree well with values computed from radiosondes (correlation usually above 0.8).
Radiometer-derived forecast indices offer the advantage (with respect to radiosondes) of nearly continuous data, capturing the entire diurnal cycle and providing fresh and timely data to forecasters.
Forecast indices commonly used in operational meteorology can be computed from temperature and...
