GdR 3187

Le Groupement de Recherche “Radiométrie Micro-onde pour l’Étude de l’Atmosphère / Research Group in Microwave Remote Sensing for Atmospheric Studies” was created by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique in April 2008.

This GDR aims at reinforcing the links between the French labs involved in microwave remote sensing of the Earth atmosphere. It has connections in Europe and in the United States and it organizes several roundtables and workshops annually. The main themes of the GdR are:

1. ‣Temperature and water vapor profiling in the atmosphere
   

2. ‣Analysis of the trace gases
   

3. ‣Cloud and rain studies
   

4. ‣Surface contribution to the atmospheric signal (ocean and land)
   

5. ‣Instrumentation
