Calibration of the Solar Channels of the NOAA-9 AVHRR Using High Altitude Aircraft Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for calibrating satellite radiometers is investigated. A calibrated spectral radiometer carried aboard a U2 aircraft at an altitude of 60 000 ft was aligned with White Sands. New Mexico along the same view vector ...
Calibration Results for NOAA-11 AVHRR Channels 1 and 2 from Congruent Path Aircraft Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method for using congruent atmospheric path aircraft-satellite observations to calibrate a satellite radiometer is presented. A calibrated spectroradiometer aboard a NASA ER-2 aircraft at an altitude of 19 km above White ...
Evaluating the Design of an Earth Radiation Budget Instrument with System Simulations. Part I: Instantaneous Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A set of system simulations has been performed to evaluate candidate scanner designs for an Earth Radiation Budget Instrument (ERBI) for the Earth Observing System (EOS) of the late 1990s. Five different instruments are ...
