CLARREO Pathfinder/VIIRS Intercalibration: Quantifying the Polarization Effects on Reflectance and the Intercalibration Uncertainty [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2019
Atmospheric scattering and surface polarization affect radiance measurements of polarization-sensitive instruments on orbit. Neglecting the polarization effects may lead to an inaccurate radiance/reflectance determination and underestimated radiance ...

Solar Intensity Dispersing (SID) Concept for CubeSat Spectral CLARREO‐Like Radiance Measurements

Earth and Space Science, Volume 10, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract NRC Decadal Surveys stated that the most critical goal for orbital climate measurements was improving accuracy. This is so comparisons can be better made with models, tuning theory to match the truth. That gives confidence in model predictions of future global cloud albedo warming signals, estimated to be only 0.8%/decade or less.

A Comparison of Top‐Of‐Atmosphere Radiative Fluxes From CERES and ARISE

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 127, Issue 24, 27 December 2022., 2022
Abstract Uncertainty in Arctic top‐of‐atmosphere (TOA) radiative flux observations stems from the low sun angles and the heterogeneous scenes. Advancing our understanding of the Arctic climate system requires improved TOA radiative fluxes. We compare Cloud and Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) TOA radiative fluxes with Arctic Radiation‐IceBridge ...

An Entropy Framework for Evaluating Reflectance Observations for Climate Studies

Earth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
Abstract This study evaluated the comparative entropy represented in shortwave (300–1,750 nm) passive remote sensing measurements from conceptual instruments with varying systematic measurement uncertainties and spectral resolutions. The focus was on spectral and broadband reflectance averaged over large spatial scales typically relevant for climate ...

NASA CERES Spurious Calibration Drifts Corrected by Lunar Scans to Show the Sun Is not Increasing Global Warming and Allow Immediate CRF Detection

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 48, Issue 15, August 2021., 2021
Abstract Orbital Earth Radiation Budget measurement comparisons to models, are critical for climate prediction confidence. Satellite systems must reduce calibration drifts for this purpose. NASA Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) measures Earth albedo reductions that if correct, would increase solar forcing and suggest greater ...
