13. Characteristic temperature of the lower atmosphere Ocean skin temperature Bulk temperature of near-surface ocean

14. 10-12  m 3.5 - 4.1  m

15. Often the relative atmospheric transmission is plotted vs. increasing wavelength 10-12  m 3.5-4.1  m

18. Depth range that contributes to 11  m IR Depth range that contributes to 10 GHz microwave radiometer (a) Strong winds (b) Day-time weak winds Why is the skin temperature always biased cool?
