Abstract EN
This paper outlines research that is currently being carried out to model the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with earth and atmosphere.
Among many others, passive microwave (PM) imagery represents a useful source of data for mapping Earth features.
Since, signal of a microwave radiometer is composed of surface and atmospheric contributions, for proper interpretation of the data these effects should be quantified.
This research presents analysis of radiative transfer model contributors, which include; the ground based parameters, forest area, water area, and meteorological parameters.
The principal objective of this study is to analyze the degree to which brightness temperature can be affected by various earth and atmospheric features.
A sensitivity analysis is performed to test the contributing effects of various parameters in radiative transfer theory based microwave emission model.
The results of the study show that soil temperature and forest stem volume are the main contributing parameters in estimating brightness temperature values.
The results further show that both the earthly located features and atmospheric parameters are important factors that must be taken into account in the development and application of radiative transfer theory based models.
