A method for the correction of AVHRR onboard IR calibration in the event of short-term radiative contamination
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. We analysed the operational infrared (IR) calibration of the AVHRR radiometers onboard NOAA-12, 14 and 15 satellites. It was shown that solar blackbody contamination aVects the calibration of all IR channels. This source of error in the calibration may result in uncertainties in the estimation of sea surface temperature (SST) up to 0.5K or more. We propose an approach to correct this error using a Fourier transform ltering technique.

Trends and uncertainties in thermal calibration of AVHRR radiometers onboard NOAA-9 to NOAA-16
[1] Satellite measurements from the infrared (IR) channels of the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR)/NOAA have been used to derive many important atmospheric, cloud, and surface parameters for weather prediction, climate modelling, and a variety of environmental studies. Calibration accuracy of the satellite data directly affects accuracies of the derived parameters. So far, very ...
متن کاملCalibrating historical IR sensors using GEO and AVHRR infrared tropical mean calibration models
Long-term, remote-sensing-based climate data records (CDRs) are highly dependent on having consistent, wellcalibrated satellite instrument measurements of the Earth’s radiant energy. Therefore, by making historical satellite calibrations consistent with those of today’s imagers, the Earth-observing community can benefit from a CDR that spans a minimum of 30 years. Most operational meteorologica...
متن کاملExtension Ability of Reduced Order Model of Unsteady Incompressible Flows Using a Combination of POD and Fourier Modes
In this article, an improved reduced order modelling approach, based on the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method, is presented. After projecting the governing equations of flow dynamics along the POD modes, a dynamical system was obtained. Normally, the classical reduced order models do not predict accurate time variations of flow variables due to some reasons. The response of the dynam...
متن کاملUsing Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) to calibrate advanced very high resolution radiometer reflectance channels
[1] A series of 10 advanced very high resolution radiometers (AVHRRs) flown on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s polar-orbiting satellites for over 20 years has provided data suitable for many quantitative remote sensing applications. To be useful for geophysical research, each radiometer must be accurately calibrated, which poses problems in the AVHRR reflectance channel...
متن کاملP-43: Short Term Effect of Oxytocin on Testis under Ischemia Reperfusion Injury
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the short term protective effect of oxytocin on testicular ischemia reperfusion injury immediately after detorsion in a rat model. Materials and Methods: Twenty adult rats were randomly divided into four groups: Control, Ischemia- Reperfusion (IR), Oxytocin and IR+ Oxytocin. Testicular ischemia was achieved by torsion of the left testis 720° ...
