Journal ArticleDOI

Suomi-NPP CrIS radiometric calibration uncertainty

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the CrIS radiometric calibration uncertainty based on pre-launch and on-orbit efforts to estimate calibration parameter uncertainties, and provide example results of recent post-launch validation efforts to assess the predicted uncertainty.
Journal ArticleDOI

A principal component noise filter for high spectral resolution infrared measurements

TL;DR: In this paper, principal component analysis (PCA) was applied to reduce the random noise present in the hyperspectral infrared observations, and the results obtained depend on the variability of selected sets of observations and on specific instrument characteristics such as spectral resolution and noise statistics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solar and Thermal Radiation in Jupiter's Atmosphere: Initial Results of the Galileo Probe Net Flux Radiometer

TL;DR: The Galileo probe net flux radiometer measured radiation within Jupiter's atmosphere over the 125-kilometer altitude range between pressures of 0.44 bar and 14 bars to suggest an increasing water abundance with depth or a deep cloud layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infrared land surface remote sensing using high spectral resolution aircraft observations

TL;DR: In this article, a method for emissivity-temperature separation using high spectral resolution infrared observations is presented, which is illustrated using observations from a high altitude aircraft over a ground truth site in North Central Oklahoma, USA.
