Journal ArticleDOI
Radiometric and spectral validation of Atmospheric Infrared Sounder observations with the aircraft-based Scanning High-Resolution Interferometer Sounder
David C. Tobin,Henry E. Revercomb,Robert O. Knuteson,Fred A. Best,William L. Smith,William L. Smith,Nick N. Ciganovich,R. G. Dedecker,Steven Dutcher,Scott D. Ellington,Raymond K. Garcia,H. Benjamin Howell,Daniel D. LaPorte,Stephen A. Mango,Thomas S. Pagano,Joe K. Taylor,Paul van Delst,Kenneth H. Vinson,Mark W. Werner +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between a high-altitude aircraft spectrometer and an AIRS was performed on the NASA Aqua spacecraft by the Scanning-HIS on a NASA ER-2 high altitude aircraft, and the difference in brightness temperature was found to be 0.2 K or less for most channels.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Geosynchronous Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (GIFTS) on-board blackbody calibration system
Fred A. Best,Henry E. Revercomb,Robert O. Knuteson,David C. Tobin,Scott D. Ellington,Mark W. Werner,Douglas P. Adler,Raymond K. Garcia,Joe K. Taylor,Nick N. Ciganovich,William L. Smith,Gail E. Bingham,John Elwell,Deron Scott +13 more
TL;DR: The NASA New Millennium Program's Geosynchronous Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (GIFTS) instrument provides enormous advances in water vapor, wind, temperature, and trace gas profiling from geostationary orbit as mentioned in this paper.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Airborne and ground-based Fourier transform spectrometers for meteorology: HIS, AERI, and the new AERI-UAV
Henry E. Revercomb,William L. Smith,Fred A. Best,Jean Giroux,Daniel D. LaPorte,Robert O. Knuteson,Mark W. Werner,Jim R. Anderson,Nick N. Ciganovich,Richard W. Cline,Scott D. Ellington,R. G. Dedecker,T. P. Dirkx,Raymond K. Garcia,H. Benjamin Howell +14 more
TL;DR: The AERI-UAV as discussed by the authors is a UAV equipped with a high-resolution interferometer sounder for high altitude ER2, which is used in the DOE atmospheric radiation measurement program.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Highly accurate FTIR observations from the Scanning HIS aircraft instrument
Henry E. Revercomb,David C. Tobin,Robert O. Knuteson,Fred A. Best,William L. Smith,Paul van Delst,Daniel D. LaPorte,Scott D. Ellington,Mark W. Werner,R. G. Dedecker,Raymond K. Garcia,Nick N. Ciganovich,H. B. Howell,Erik R. Olson,Steven Dutcher,Joe K. Taylor +15 more
TL;DR: The Scanning HIS instrument as discussed by the authors is a smaller version of the original High-resolution Interferometer Sounder (HIS) that uses cross-track scanning to enhance spatial coverage.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The heated halo for space-based blackbody emissivity measurement
P. Jonathan Gero,Joe K. Taylor,Fred A. Best,Henry E. Revercomb,Raymond K. Garcia,Robert O. Knuteson,David C. Tobin,Douglas P. Adler,Nick N. Ciganovich +8 more
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.
