Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer Granule Data
Entry ID:
gov.noaa.class.IASI
Summary
Abstract:
ABSTRACT: The Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer is flown on METOP-A. The main goal is to provide atmospheric emission spectra to derive temperature and humidity profiles with high vertical resolution and accuracy. It is a Michelson interferometer with spectral coverage between 3.6 and 15.5 micrometers. At nadir, the instrument samples data at intervals of 25 km along and a cross track, ...
 Purpose: PURPOSE: For radiance and retrieval assimilations into numerical weather prediction models.
