Missions
Microwave satellite observations come from three types of sensors: radiometers, sounders, and scatterometers. Learn more about each of these and their associated satellite missions.
Measurements
Microwave satellite sensors observe the earth daily. Find out how we use these observations to study the earth’s temperature, wind speed, salinity, rain rate, and more.
Research
Learn more about the scientific projects and innovative research that we conduct at Remote Sensing Systems using satellite microwave observations and retrievals.
Storm Watch
Microwave satellite observations penetrate clouds, revealing many features of tropical storms. Explore our global storm-centric archive of these storms and see our microwave satellite retrievals in action.
