Pre-launch Radiometric Characterization of JPSS-2 VIIRS Thermal Emissive Bands [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
The Joint Polar Satellite System 2 (JPSS-2) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is the third in its series of sensors designed to produce high quality data products for environmental and climate data records once launched. To meet this goal,

Thermal emission of WASP-48b in the Ks-band [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
We report a detection of thermal emission from the hot Jupiter WASP-48b in the Ks-band. We used the Wide-field Infra-red Camera on the 3.6-m Canada-France Hawaii Telescope to observe an occultation of the planet by its host star. From the resulting occultation lightcurve we find a planet-to-star contrast ratio in the Ks-band of 0.136 ± 0.014%, in ...

VIIRS thermal emissive bands L1B calibration uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes2017 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2017
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is a key instrument on-board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) spacecraft. The S-NPP launched in October 2011 and it has been collecting valuable Earth science data with VIIRS and four other instruments for more than five years.

Error Analysis on the Thermal Emissive Band Calibration for the MERSI

open access: yes, 2023
The remote sensor mounted on the Fengyun-3C (FY-3C) will decay naturally during the operation, causing a decrease in the accuracy of the satellite data. Therefore, an effective monitoring method must be adopted to study the performance changes of the instrument. The theoretical expressions of the absolute and relative errors for the earth field of view
