METR155: Cloud, Aerosol, and Land Surface Monitoring from

MAS/MODISProf. Menglin Jin

San Jose State University

A discussion on

King et al. 1996: Airborne Scanning Spectrometer for Remote Sensing of Cloud, Aerosol, Water Vapor, and Surface Properties.J O U R N A L O F A T M O S P H E R I C AND O C E A N I C TECHNOLOGY, Vol 13, 777-794.

Goal: 1. Know what channels are used for clouds, aerosol, land vegetation and radiative transfer principal for using these channels;2. To understand the similarity and differences between MAS and MODIS,

and physical reasons for these3. Understand calibration basics4. Understand airborne instrument design5. Gain knowledge how airborne is used in field trip

4. Calibration

a. Why shortwave calibration is done on ground and thermal bands calibration is different?

b. Why need temperature correction?

c. What are the basics for calibration?

d. Discuss uncertainty of calibration.
