Abstract :
Microwave measurements are increasingly used to derive water vapor information. This paper focuses on the retrieval issue with emphasis on some identified problems. The calibration as well as the modeling uncertainties will be discussed. Recent studies performed with microwave imagers and sounders will be also described
