Definition | An autonomous radiometer developed by the University of Southampton (UK) and Brookhaven National Laboratories (US) for satellite Sea Surface Temperature (SST) validation and other scientific programs. It detects infrared temperature using a single channel with a spectral bandpass of 9.6-11.5 um. It is compact (570 mm × 220 mm cylinder) and employs two reference blackbody cavities to maintain the radiance calibration of a special Heitronics KT15.85D radiometer to an accuracy of +/-0.1K. It has a temperature range of 173-373 K. It can be deployed continuously on voluntary observing ships (VOS) without any service requirement or operator intervention for periods of up to 3 months. http://dx.doi.org/10.1175/2007JTECHO505.1 |
