| Subject: | NSA/AERI/C1 - Reprocessed: Failed temp sensor affected calibration |
| DataStreams: | nsaaerich1C1.b1, nsaaerich2C1.b1, nsaaerisummaryC1.b1
|
| Description: | The blackbody support structure temperature sensor on the NSA.C1 AERI were biased high by
approximately 25K beginning 20071217 and became progressively worse until the sensor was
replaced 20080213. The temperature from this sensor is used to calibrate the radiance
data for the AERI. The AERI data have been reprocessed by replacing the data from the
failed sensor with the cold blackbody temperature sensor data and producing
corrected/recalibrated radiance data.
The reprocessed data were archived in March 2008. |
