OBJECTIVES AND VISION OF THE MRS SECTION
1) Development of payloads and algorithms for planetary surface studies.
2) Atmospheric and cloud microphysics studies using ground-based microwave radiometer observations.
3) Atmospheric boundary layer, humidity, convective clouds studies and algorithm development based on satellite and ground-based microwave radiometric observations.
4) Land surface microwave emissivity characterisation using satellite radiometer observations.
5) Venus surface/subsurface studies using Earth-based radiometric measurements of thermal emission at microwave/radiowave frequencies.
6) Ka-band propagation studies.
