SMOS L2 Ocean Salinity

new 2 step RFI outlier detection algorithm based on reducing outlier threshold if high probability of RFI detected

for pol = 0 to 3 /* Stokes 1..4 */ if std(TBmodel[pol] - TBsmos[pol]) > 1.2 * std_theory then

rfi_outlier_risk[pol] = TRUE

if rfi_outlier_risk[pol] then for each measurement

if abs(TBmodel[pol] - TBsmos[pol]) > 3 * rad_noise then Fm_L2_rfi = TRUE

wherestd_theory = √ ((TB_radiometric_noise2 + TBmodel2 ) / nMeas)factor of 1.2 is 99% confidence with 100 measurements (1 + 0.18)nsig is reduced from 5 (non-RFI outlier detection threshold) to 3

no RFI detection RFI detection deltaProblem: RFI detection works well, but impacts non-RFI retrievals, because measurements discarded if Fm_L2_RFI set even if < 50%

Outliers & RFI

• Conclusions– new L2 RFI algorithm detects RFI– once detected, RFI measurement selection

enables &/or improves retrieved salinity– L1 coast contamination causes false RFI positives

– RFI thresholds need tuning with new L1

– L2OS configuration can turn RFI detection/mitigation off if required
