- Abstract
The article provides an overview of the use of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) polarimetric radio occultation (PRO) measurements for weather prediction and applications. It summarizes a workshop that brought together participants from various countries to discuss the status and potential of PRO. The article highlights the benefits of PRO in improving weather forecasts and validating cloud microphysical processes. It also discusses ongoing experiments and the potential use of PRO observations in weather forecasting, climate modeling, and evaluating satellite precipitation products. The article also mentions the consideration of future constellations of small satellites for PRO measurements.
