Reminder => GSICS IR Subgroup Web Meeting at 0700-0900 EDT on July 6 2023

[LIkun Wang - NOAA Affliate]

Dear GSICS colleagues:

As a reminder, We will have the GSICS IR Subgroup Web Meeting at 0700-0900 EDT on July 6 2023 (check your time here). Here is the agenda:

 

1)  Tim Hewison (EUMETSAT): Investigation of Inter-calibration Bias over Hot Land (20 minutes + 10 minutes discussion)

The MICMICS team of EUMETSAT made some progress in identifying a cause of the “hot land” issue.  It is one of important actions during the annual meeting.

2)  Wehhui Wang (UMD): Inter-calibration of VIIRS and CrIS (20 minutes)

Wenhui will report the inter-calibration results between CrIS and VIIRS from a different perspective, which treats CrIS as a reference and then evaluates VIIRS calibration quality.

3)  Likun Wang  (UMD):  Collocating VIIRS with CrIS using only VIIRS Terrain Corrected Geolocation Datasets (20 minutes)

 As you may know, VIIRS currently releases both Terrain Corrected (TC) and Non-TC geolocation datasets. Under the plan, the  Non-TC geolocation datasets will be turned off.  However,  other sensors on the same platform(e.g. CrIS) only have Non-TC geolocation datasets. I recently investigated how this impacts on the collocation and propose a resolution to mitigate the effects.
