Possible improvements
1. First guess (regression)
2. Covariance matrix of state variables
3. Measured Radiances - Noise
4. Calculated Radiances (RTM)- Bias

First guessTemperature Moisture
1. New regression is better than old one and forecast
2. Better first guess could produce better physical retrieval results
3. This could be wrong if the covariance matrix is not consistent with the first guess

In New bias estimate:
(1) 101-level RTA model is used
(2) Surface emissivities are derived from regression based on realistic training

Validation against RAOB
• GPS helps retrieve moisture
• Simple 3 by 3 average helps improve first guess
• Phy2 has better results than Phy1
• Covariance matrix should match the first guess (better first guess doesn’t guarantee better retrieval)

Summaries
• Single FOV sounding retrievals could be improved through the following aspects:– Forecast helps regression– GPS TPW helps regression– Covariance matrix of state variables– 3x3 simple average
• New physical retrieval with regression as first guess is good when TPW is large (summer)
• New physical retrieval with forecast as first guess is good when TPW is small (winter)

Future work
• New covariance matrices for dry and wet cases
• GPS TPW as extra “channel”
• Time continuity, Kalman Filter
