What Does MSU Stand For?
MSU stands for Microwave Sounding Unit
The Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) is a satellite-based instrument designed to measure atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles by analyzing microwave radiation emitted by the Earth's atmosphere. It plays a crucial role in weather forecasting and climate research by providing high-resolution data that enhance the understanding of atmospheric conditions. The MSU contributes to the collection of accurate meteorological data essential for predicting weather patterns and studying climate change.
