The hypothesis whether turbulence within the passive microwave sounders field of view can cause significant biases in radiative transfer modeling at the 183 GHz water vapor absorption band is tested.A novel method to calculate the effects of turbulence in radiative transfer modeling is presented.It is shown that the turbulent nature of Tube
