  1. Collect 5 Calibration Issues Chris Moeller and others Univ. Wisconsin March 22, 2005 Presented at MCST Calibration breakout meeting, March 22, 2005

  2. Recent MODIS Calibration Changes and Issues • Collect 5 DSM RVS application for Terra (MSCN?) • Aqua AIRS – MODIS comparisons • 5um leak correction for Terra Aside 2 • TIR band destriping update (global training) • Reminder about Aqua MODIS registration offsets (Ralf Bennartz) • Terra B26 radiance change for Collect 5 due to change in 5um leak correction formulation

  3. Terra MODIS DSM RVS • Used for Thermal bands • Largest impact in LWIR CO2 bands 34-36 • Cross-track asymmetry reduced • Mirror-side striping reduced (exception: Bside) • Examples from each of the major MODIS epochs (Aside 1, Bside, Aside 2)

  18. Old RVS Terra MODIS Clear Sky Radiance Bias (MODIS – model prediction) Band 36 (14.2 um) The biases have a distinct dependence on scan angle

  19. Terra MODIS Clear Sky Radiance Bias (MODIS – model prediction) Band 36 (14.2 um) DSM RVS Using DSM RVS largely removes the bias dependence on scan angle

  20. Aqua AIRS-MODIS Comparisons • Global day of data analyzed…uniform scenes only • Suggests a MODIS calibration bias as function of BT. • Suggests a MODIS Scan Mirror RVS error.

  21. The 1 km MODIS is collocated with AIRS by representing the AIRS FOVs as slightly oversized circular footprints, and computing the mean MODIS value within those footprints for each band. Spatially uniform scenes are selected by requiring the standard deviation of the MODIS data within each AIRS footprint to be 0.2K or less.

  22. Example comparisons for band 34 (13.7 m) on 6 Sept 2002. AIRS MODIS

  29. Nighttime Band: 24 33 34 35 36 (Low Yield) Reference lines, from Band 24 curves

  30. Observations: • For scan angles less than ~30 degrees, both AIRS and MODIS show scan asymmetry which is most likely due to local time differences from one side of the scan to the other. For AIRS and for band 24 of MODIS, this behavior has the same character for all scan angles (i.e. the linear behavior of the scan asymetry plots as a function of scan angle). • For MODIS, the scan angle asymmetry has a different character at larger scan agles, beginning around 30 degrees off nadir, which is more pronounced for the longer wavelengths bands. • For Band 24 Daytime, AIRS and MODIS show nearly the same scan asymmetry, yet still have differences (AIRS-MODIS) which increase with scan angle (i.e. the differences increase almost linearly with scan angle). More asymmetry is seen at night.

  31. SWIR 5um Leak Correction:Terra Aside 2 • Terra MODIS Aside 2 nighttime B26 data reveals artifacts of thermal band features even after the 5um thermal leak correction has been applied in L1B. Aqua MODIS shows practically no features. • Up to 1% (of Ltyp) effect in Terra MODIS B26. • What about other Terra SWIR bands (B5-7)? We don’t have routine nighttime data to inspect.

  34. MODIS Emissive Band Destriping Update: Granule vs. Global Analysis • The Atmosphere Group products for collection 5 include destriping of all emissive bands (20-25, 27-36) and band 26. • The destriping algorithm is granule-based, and for a small percentage of granules, the impact may be equivocal in bands 31 and 32. Granules with sharp transitions between warm and cool scenes (e.g. hot land, cool ocean) may have artifacts in the scene transition zone. • We analyzed a complete day of data (Terra MODIS 2000337, collection 5) to develop the destriping LUT for bands 31 and 32, with the expectation that sampling a wider range of scenes would remove the artifacts.
