TL;DR: In this article, a novel scheme to provide absolute calibration of temperature sensors on-orbit, that uses the transient melt signatures from multiple phase change materials, has been demonstrated in the laboratory at the University of Wisconsin and is now undergoing technology advancement under NASA Instrument Incubator Program funding.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results from the Heated Halo methodology implemented with a new Absolute Radiance Interferometer (ARI), which is a prototype space-based infrared spacecraft spectrometer designed for climate benchmarking.

TL;DR: In this article, an under-flight of the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on the NASA Aqua spacecraft by the Scanning High resolution Interferometer Sounder(S-HIS) on a NASA ER-2 high altitude aircraft was successfully demonstrated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed techniques for improving effective radiometric performance by removing noise in post-processing is a primary subject of this paper, which is the case of the Scanning HIS aircraft instrument (S-HIS).

TL;DR: The Absolute Radiance Interferometer (ARI) at UW-SSEC as mentioned in this paper is a state-of-the-art absolute radiiance interferometer that was designed and developed at the University of Wisconsin Space Science and Engineering Center.
