Aerosol Optical Depth-VI Sources of uncertainty(Knapp et al., 2002)
Visible Channel Calibration-I • There is onboard calibrator for the infrared channels • There is no onboard calibrator for visible channel, although accurate calibration is required for the derivation quantitative values such as the aerosol optical depth and for climatic applications • For the real time monitoring/update of the visible channel calibration coefficients, we are going to take the vicarious calibration approach • The main concept for the approach originates from the current EUMETSAT visible channel calibration method, which compares the measured radiance and theoretically derived radiance • Thus, for the beginning, we builds up the theoretical model for the calculation of the theoretical radiance • Also, great efforts are given to find out bright and stable surface target for the determination of the slope of the calibration curve.

Visible Channel Calibration-VIII • Other approaches • Using the bright cloud targets • Using the cloud albedo characteristics • Clear ocean targets with in-situ observation • Expected accuracy • Preliminary results show that absolute accuracy of 10% is relatively easily achieved • With well known surface characteristics of the target area, 5% is achievable • Further works are required for the characterization of uncertainty sources and reducing the uncertainty
