Uniformity of Imaging Spectrometry Data Products
TL;DR: It is shown that the impact of imaging spectrometry data product imperfections in currently available data products has an inherent uncertainty of 10%, even though worst case scenarios were excluded, state-of-the-art corrections were applied, and radiometric calibration uncertainties were excluded.

A Fast All-sky Radiation Model for Solar applications with Narrowband Irradiances on Tilted surfaces (FARMS-NIT): Part II. The cloudy-sky model
TL;DR: In this article, the Fast All-sky Radiation Model for Solar applications with Narrowband Irradiances on Tilted surfaces (FARMS-NIT) was developed to efficiently compute irradiances on inclined photovoltaics (PV) panels for 2002 narrow-wavelength bands from 0.28 to 4.0

An improved dark-object subtraction technique for atmospheric correction of Landsat 8
TL;DR: In this article, an improved dark object subtraction (DOS) method was introduced for Landsat 8 multispectral satellite image in which the main factors including Rayleigh scattering, Mie scattering in path radiance, as well as the other satellite image parameters (such as height modification, slope distance and azimuth) ware considered in the algorithm.

Mineral mapping and ore prospecting using Landsat TM and Hyperion data, Wushitala, Xinjiang, northwestern China
TL;DR: In this article, the results of Hyperion data are spatially consistent with those of Landsat TM data and the matched filtering method is applied on Hyperion for the detailed identification of hydrothermally altered minerals surrounding the granites in the north.

Estimation of instantaneous air temperature above vegetation and soil surfaces from Landsat 7 ETM+ data in northern Germany
TL;DR: In this paper, the TVX method is applied to fine spatial resolution data and a central European region is compared with in situ measurements, showing an average error of about 3 K root mean square, RMS, whereas the mean error in land surface temperature LST estimation is about 2 K.

TL;DR: The HITRAN molecular absorption database as mentioned in this paper contains line parameters for 31 species and their isotopomers that are significant for terrestrial atmospheric studies, including chlorofluorocarbons and other molecular species that are not amenable to line-by-line representation.

A description of the correlated k distribution method for modeling nongray gaseous absorption, thermal emission, and multiple scattering in vertically inhomogeneous atmospheres
Andrew A. Lacis,Valdar Oinas +1 more
TL;DR: A radiative transfer method for treating nongray gaseous absorption and thermal emission in vertically inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres is described in this paper, where probability density distributions of absorption coefficient strength are derived from line-by-line calculations to construct line-By-line and band model based k distributions.
