Abstract: he optimal spectral sampling (OSS) method provides a fast and accurate way to model radiometric observations and their Jacobians (required for inversion problems) as a linear combination of monochromatic quantities. The ...

Abstract: This paper describes a rapid and accurate technique for the numerical modeling of band transmittances and radiances in media with nonhomogeneous thermodynamic properties (i.e., temperature and pressure), containing a mixture ...
