The Calibration and Intercalibration of Sea-Going Infrared Radiometer Systems Using a Low Cost Blackbody Cavity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are many infrared radiometer systems available for the measurement of in situ sea surface skin temperature (SSST). Unfortunately, the marine environment is extremely hostile to optical components, and to ensure the ...
Toward Improved Validation of Satellite Sea Surface Skin Temperature Measurements for Climate Research
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A poor validation strategy will compromise the quality of satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) products because confidence limits cannot be quantified. This paper addresses the question of how to provide the ...
The Miami2001 Infrared Radiometer Calibration and Intercomparison. Part II: Shipboard Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The second calibration and intercomparison of infrared radiometers (Miami2001) was held at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) during a workshop held from May to June 2001. ...
Solid-State Radiometer Measurements of Sea Surface Skin Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite sea surface skin temperature (SSST) maps are readily available from precisely calibrated radiometer systems such as the ERS along-track scanning radiometer and, in the near future, from the moderate-resolution ...
The Miami2001 Infrared Radiometer Calibration and Intercomparison. Part I: Laboratory Characterization of Blackbody Targets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The second calibration and intercomparison of infrared radiometers (Miami2001) was held at the University of Miami's Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) during May?June 2001. The participants were ...
The 2016 CEOS Infrared Radiometer Comparison: Part II: Laboratory Comparison of Radiation Thermometers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTo ensure confidence, measurements carried out by imaging radiometers mounted on satellites require robust validation using ?fiducial quality? measurements of the same in situ parameter. For surface temperature ...
