Abstract: Horizon sensors are essential elements in the orientation systems of many space vehicles and satellites. Their design and an evaluation of their capabilities and limitations requires a knowledge of the spectral radiance ...

Abstract: Nimbus 4 IRIS spectra (2.8 cm?1 spectral resolution) exhibit a number of narrow window regions in the 700?1300 cm?1 region suitable for estimating surface temperature from infrared remote sounding measurements. Degraded ...

Abstract: Spectral measurements made by a high resolution Infrared Interferometer Spectrometer (IRIS) aboard the Nimbus III satellite are used to deduce, remotely, atmospheric ozone content and distribution. This indirect method ...
