Aerosol Characteristics at a high-altitude station Nainital during the ISRO-GBP Land Campaign-II
During the second land campaign (LC-II) organised by ISRO-GBP, extensive ground-based measurements of aerosol characteristics were carried out over Manora Peak (29.4oN; 79.5oE; 1951 metres above mean sea level), Nainital (a high altitude station located ...

Calibration of the spin-scan ozone imager aboard the dynamics Explorer 1 satellite [PDF]
The calibration technique, which contains the calibrated backscattered radiance values necessary for performing the calibrations, is presented. The calibration constants for September to October 1981 to determine total columnar ozone from the Spin-Scan ...

Design and Performance of the COOPS Sun Photometer
The scattering of light in the atmosphere by aerosols has significant implications to the measurement of ocean color by satellite. Determining the effects of this scattering by measuring aerosol optical thickness (ζa) and sky radiance requires a Sun Photometer.

Infrared continuum observations of the solar atmosphere [PDF]
The far-infrared wavelengths (10 microns to 1 mm) were used to study the spatial and temporal structure of the solar atmosphere. Observational results were obtained on flares, faculae, sunspots, and on the center-to-limb intensity distribution, as well ...

Monitoring solar-type stars for luminosity variations [PDF]
Since 1984, researchers have made more than 1500 differential photometric b (471 nm) and y (551 nm) measurements of three dozen solar-like lower main sequence stars whose chromospheric activity was previosly studied by O. C. Wilson.

Observations of the Interaction and Transport of Fine Mode Aerosols With Cloud and/or Fog in Northeast Asia From Aerosol Robotic Network and Satellite Remote Sensing [PDF]
Analysis of Sun photometer measured and satellite retrieved aerosol optical depth (AOD) datahas shown that major aerosol pollution events with very highfine mode AOD (>1.0 in midvisible) in theChina/Korea/Japan region are often observed to be associated ...

AMPS definition study on Optical Band Imager and Photometer System (OBIPS) [PDF]
A study was conducted to define the characteristics of a modular optical diagnostic system (OBIPS) for AMPS, to provide input to Phase B studies, and to give information useful for experiment planning and design of other instrumentation.
