Abstract :
Proposes a method for the validation of atmospheric radiative transfer models. This method is aimed to be applied on a double model (using active and passive observations) developed at Louvain University (Belgium). It has been tested on a radiometric model for frequencies in the range 1 to 200 GHz and the results are shown
