An Evaluation of a Self-Calibrating Infrared Radiometer for Measuring Sea Surface Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite radiometer measurements of global sea surface temperature (SST) with an accuracy of 0.3 K are required for climate change monitoring. In order to validate that this accuracy can be achieved, in situ measurements ...
Calibration of the Improved Stratospheric and Mesospheric Sounder. Part II: Optical Alignment, Spatial, and Pressure Modulator Calibrations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In Part I the Improved Stratospheric and Mesospheric Sounder instrument and its calibration facility were described, and the results of the radiometric and spectral calibrations were presented. In Part II the remaining ...
Calibration of the Improved Stratospheric and Mesospheric Sounder. Part I: Introduction, Spectral, and Radiometric Calibration
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Improved Stratospheric and Mesospheric Sounder (ISAMS) is an infrared spectroradiometer that formed part of the science instrument payload of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite. An essential part of the success ...
