  15. Sensor Calibration Band-integrated radiance as a function of temperature (Planck’s Law) at detector: L(Tb) = ∫ C1() / [5  exp(C2/ Tb)-1] d  where Tb blackbody temperature () detector response function (determined pre-launch) C1, C2 constants Calibration finds gain and offset to relate the digital output signal S to radiance at detector L: L = gain*S + offset or Tb = A + B ln(L) Need 2 known points to find gain and offset for each detector

  16. MODIS has 10 detectors scanned by 2 mirror-sides --> 20 calibrations SST Striping due to imperfect inter-detector calibrations [from Gumley, 2006]

Note: sst4 is not valid during daytime because of solar reflection. [from Gumley, 2006]
