Spectral and Anisotropic Corrections for GMS Satellite Data


doi: 10.1007/BF02656939

  • Using the radiative transfer simulation, the sampling study about the spectral and anisotropic corrections for GMS satellite data is carried out. The conversion factor and the anisotropic reflectance factor in inversion process of broadband radiation fluxes have been obtained for various underlying surface scenes in clear sky and for the case of overcast sky. The results demonstrate that the consideration of spectral and anisotropic corrections is essential for the earth radiation budget research using satellite data. The mean conversion factors for GMS are between 2.54 and 5.30. The values of the conversion factor are different for various observation angles, especially in cases of ocean, vegeta-tion cover and wet soil surface. The error of retrieving broadband radiance without considering the difference of ob-servation geometry is about 5.5%-15% for ocean, 4.5%-10% for various land surfaces. The calculated anisotropic factors for ocean and cloud scenes are in good agreement with those estimated from Nimbus-7. For Land, desert and snow scenes, the calculated values in backward scattering direction are smaller than the measured.

Abstract: Using the radiative transfer simulation, the sampling study about the spectral and anisotropic corrections for GMS satellite data is carried out. The conversion factor and the anisotropic reflectance factor in inversion process of broadband radiation fluxes have been obtained for various underlying surface scenes in clear sky and for the case of overcast sky. The results demonstrate that the consideration of spectral and anisotropic corrections is essential for the earth radiation budget research using satellite data. The mean conversion factors for GMS are between 2.54 and 5.30. The values of the conversion factor are different for various observation angles, especially in cases of ocean, vegeta-tion cover and wet soil surface. The error of retrieving broadband radiance without considering the difference of ob-servation geometry is about 5.5%-15% for ocean, 4.5%-10% for various land surfaces.
