Suomi NPP VIIRS prelaunch and on‐orbit geometric calibration and characterization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2013
AbstractThe Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor was launched 28 October 2011 on the Suomi National Polar‐orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite. VIIRS has 22 spectral bands covering the spectrum between 0.412 µm and 12.01 µm, including 16 moderate resolution bands (M‐bands) with a nominal spatial resolution of 750 m at nadir, five ...

Anthropogenic and natural factors are associated with bird dawn chorus onset in subtropical East Asia

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic factors such as artificial lighting at night (ALAN) and natural factors including temperature and moonlight can affect the dawn chorus pattern in birds. However, most studies are conducted in temperate regions. We investigated the effect of anthropogenic and natural factors on dawn chorus timing in eight species of bird across Hong Kong ...
