The phenomena of a time delay of the ocean/atmosphere system brightness
temperature response in the resonant spectral domains 5.9 and 13.5 mm on the
variations of surface heat

Solution of Eq. ( 2.23 ) can be theoretically realized by traditional methods which
are used for solution of inverse tasks in the form of integral equation of the
rst
type. But in real case, functions T b (t, ʻ ) and q(t) have discrete form as restricted in
the time numerical sets. Therefore, traditional methods such as Laplace transfor-
mation or iterative procedure (Tricomi 1960) lead to large errors. More effective
method for solution of Eq. ( 2.23 ) was proposed by Grankov and Soldatov (2005). It
consists in the use of exponential approximation:

Numerical calculations in Fig. 2.37 show that such approach to solution of
Eq. ( 2.23 ) gives errors no more 5
7 %. We see that time delay exists between
radiobrightness temperature and heat
-
flux. This is important for calibration of
satellite measurements. Calculation of the function r(t) of the brightness tempera-
ture T b response (sensitivity) to the total heat fluxes q the variation is clearly
demonstrated. In this case, brightness temperatures were calculated from the
oceanographic, meteorological, and aerological data, observed in the experiment
