Radiometric performance characterization of NOAA-20 VIIRS reflective solar bands
Earth Observing Systems XXV, 2020NOAA-20 VIIRS Reflective Solar Bands (RSBs) have been performing well since launch with good quality sensor data records (SDRs). The radiometric performance of these SDRs have been continuously analyzed and monitored using various independent validation techniques. It is important to maintain radiometric consistency between NOAA-20 VIIRS SDRs and other

Performance assessment of the NOAA-20 VIIRS RSB using deep convective clouds
Earth Observing Systems XXVI, 2021The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the NOAA-20 (N20) satellite was launched on November 18, 2017. The N20 VIIRS reflective solar bands (RSBs) are calibrated on-orbit using a solar diffuser. An accurate on-orbit calibration is crucial to the high-quality downstream products facilitating atmosphere, ocean and land applications.

Early Calibration and Performance Assessments of NOAA-20 VIIRS Thermal Emissive Bands
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2019The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor aboard the NOAA-20 (previously JPSS-1) spacecraft has successfully operated since its launch in November, 2017. Similar to the first VIIRS instrument on the Suomi-National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) spacecraft, the data are collected in 22 spectral bands that are calibrated by a set of

Initial on-orbit radiometric calibration of the NOAA-20 VIIRS Reflective Solar Bands
Earth Observing Systems XXIII, 2018The NOAA-20 Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) includes several on-board calibration sources for on- orbit radiometric calibration. In the Visible/Near Infrared (VISNIR) and Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) bands, the on- orbit radiometric calibration is carried out by using a reference called Solar Diffuser (SD).

NOAA-20 VIIRS Reflective Solar bands on-Orbit Calibration Using a Hybrid Approach
IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020The NOAA-20 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) has been in orbit for more than two and a half years. VIIRS has 22 bands, among which 14 are reflective solar bands (RSBs) covering a spectral range from 0.41 to 2.25 µm. The RSBs are calibrated on-orbit using an onboard solar diffuser (SD), on-orbit degradation of which is tracked by an ...

Linking SNPP and NOAA-20 Cris Toward Measurement Consistency and Climate Data Records
IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018Quantifying the radiometric difference and creating a calibration link between SNPP and NOAA-20 CrIS are crucial for creating CrIS long-term climate data records and establishing the space-based calibration standard. This study uses two methods (direct and indirect comparison) to comprehensively evaluate the radiometric consistence and differences ...

Development and validation of NOAA’s 20-year Global Wave Ensemble reforecast
Weather and ForecastingA 20-yr wave reforecast was generated based on the NOAA Global Ensemble Forecast System, version 12. It was produced using the same setup as the NCEP’s operational GEFSv12 wave component. The reforecast comprises five members with 1 cycle per day and a forecast range of 16 days. Once a week, it expands to 35 days and 11 members.
