Description:A quality control (QC) process which handles surface impacts is an important step toward successful assimilation of the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) water vapor (WV) band radiances. If the QC is too relaxed, many surface contaminated radiances get assimilated. If the QC is too stringent, useful radiances are rejected. Either way can result in reduced or even compromised observation impacts. A new machine learning-based QC scheme for the three ABI WV bands is developed and optimized to help understand the importance and effectiveness of the scheme. Unlike previous schemes which are dependent on the background, this scheme extracts and blends the surface information from 7 ABI bands (bands 8–10, 13–16) to determine
