| Definition | An integrated system for making measurements of atmospheric downwelling radiation on moving platforms. The system consists of an Eppley Precision Solar Pyranometer (PSP) which measures total broadband (0.285 to 2.8 um) downwelling shortwave (solar) irradiance, an Eppley Precision Infrared Pyrgeometer (PIR) which measures the broadband (4-50 um) downwelling longwave irradiance, and a Brookhaven National Laboratory Fast-Rotating Shadowband Radiometer which decomposes incoming shortwave irradiance into direct-beam and diffuse (sky) irradiance and these are used to compute the aerosol optical depth (AOD) in six 10 nm wide bands (415, 500, 615, 680, 870, 940 nm). A seventh band is a broad open Si cell. The PRP also includes a pitch-roll-FG compass sensor to compensate for measurements on moving platforms. |
