  1. VIIRS channel M06 saturation and “fold over” Curtis Seaman CSU/CIRA 5/2/2012

  2. SDR – SVM05 – 26 April 2012 – 19:01:58 UTC Maximum radiance (white) = 666.042 W m-2 str-1mm-1 Minimum radiance (black) = 12.659 W m-2 str-1mm-1

  3. SDR – SVM06 – 26 April 2012 – 19:01:58 UTC Maximum radiance (white) = 49.205 W m-2 str-1mm-1 Minimum radiance (black) = 11.038 W m-2 str-1mm-1

  4. SDR – SVM07 – 26 April 2012 – 19:01:58 UTC Maximum radiance (white) = 418.80 W m-2 str-1mm-1 Minimum radiance (black) = 5.774 W m-2 str-1mm-1

  5. Review of M06 SDR saturation • Granule over the Central U.S. (Mississippi River passes through center of images) • Channel M06 SDR is saturated over nearly the entire granule • Brightest clouds in M05 and M07 appear slightly darker (not quite white) in M06 (see highlighted areas) • radiance values decrease slightly with increasing M05 and M07 radiances as C. Moeller indicated • this is the so-called “fold over” • striping is visible in “fold over” regions
