1D Var SSMIS package

SSMIS 1D-Var

SSM/I 1D-Var code, originally developed at ECMWF, has been further developed to process data from the SSMIS microwave imager/sounder and from AMSU. It is a standalone package, designed for retrievals of temperature, water vapour, surface wind speed and cloud liquid water from microwave radiance measurements. The various components of the state vector can be configured by the user.
