Tropospheric water vaporTropospheric water vapor• water vapor delay of radar propagation
nondispersive, affects all wavelengths equally
• large variation in time (random and seasonal) and space (power law)
• stratified water vapor vertical gradient change and dry atmospheric pressure changes cause delays correlated with topography
• independent and InSAR-derived estimates of delays possible for correcting ground deformation measurements

• MERIS vs MODIS
• MERIS data can be acquired at the same time as ASAR data because both on Envisat (time differences between MODIS and SAR data: ~1 hour)
• MERIS has better spatial resolution, up to 300 m against 1km for MODIS
• MERIS near IR water vapour product agrees more closely with GPS than MODIS
