CrIMSS EDR Performance Over Ocean for Feb. 24, 2011 data • Green curves are the RMS, STD, and BIAS of MW only retrieval • Blues curves are the RMS, STD, and BIAS of MW+IR only retrieval
Conclusions • The OPS performs relatively well over ocean • Improved bias tuning will increase the convergence rate and EDR performance • The poor convergence over land is due to the unrealistic MW emissivity background and covariance climatology • EDR performance is good after preliminary tuning • Algorithm tuning is still on going • Sy matrix • Sx matrix and Xa • Bias tuning • Scene classification
