Abstract
Radiobrightness Energy Balance Experiment 3 (REBEX-3) was conducted on North Slope of Alaska from September, 1994 to September, 1995. This represented the first full field experiment using the Tower Mounted Radiometer System (version 2), a set of microwave radiometers operating at Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) frequencies, along with a suite of micrometeorological instruments.
