Microwave SST• Microwave radiometers with lower frequencies (6-10GHz) can provide SST through clouds, which is very valuable both for operational and research works • Two radiometers, Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer–E (AMSR-E) and TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI), have been operated normally for five years and ten years, respectively• But, a calibration issue of brightness temperature (Tb) for both sensors still remains

Tb Calibration Issue
• Latest version (V3) of JAXA for AMSR-E still contains a calibration error of Tb with 1K order, and NASA V6 TMI also contains an error with similar order
• Sensitivity of microwave Tb of 6V and 10V to SST is 0.5K/ºC for SST above 10 ºC, and its value of 6V around SST 0 ºC is 0.3K/ ºC
• Therefore, Tb must be calibrated with an error of less than 0.1K to obtain accurate SST of 0.1-0.2 ºC error

Conclusions• Method of calibrating microwave Tb at 6 and 10GHz was presented, which was based on a wind correction on 6/10V• After tuning of TMI Tbs, a diurnal cycle of SST was clearly observed • After tuning of AMSR-E Tbs, a difference of AMSR-E and buoy SSTs was mostly laid within 0.1ºC, though 0.2 or 0.3 ºC difference was found in low SST in both hemispheres• Trend of AMSR-E Tbs was not observed, which might indicate an application for monitoring the global SST warming in a near future, by combining AMSR-E and its following
