GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 GERB 1/GERB 2 and GERB/CERES comparisons S. Dewitte Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Overview u Gerb-2/Gerb-1 comparison Aug u Gerb-1/Ceres comparison March/April 2006 u Gerb-1/Ceres comparison July 2004

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Outstanding problem u Differences in reflected solar radiance between GERB and CERES are larger than allowed by target accuracies. u Scene type dependent. u Related to GERB spectral response.

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 GERB instruments u Oldest GERB: GERB-2 –Spectral response from ‘recovered’ detector measurements. u New GERB: GERB-1. –‘Dummy’ spectral response assumes spectrally flat detector. –Has become the prime instrument on 1/5/2007

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007

Comparison Gerb-1/Gerb-2, used data u Reflected solar radiances only u Basic product: ARG: GERB PSF (basic 45 km), 17’ u GERB-2, Edition 1 u GERB-1, V4: same software, adapted instrument parameters u Time period: 1-17/8/2006

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Scene type definitions  Clear sky:  < 1 –Ocean, Dark/Bright Vegetation, Dark/Bright Desert  Thin clouds: 1 <  < 3.16  Medium clouds: 3.16 <  < 10  Thick clouds: 10 < 

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007

Used data u GERB, Edition 1/V3, 3 space-time products: –ARG (E1): GERB PSF (basic 45 km), 17’ –SHI (V3): 9 km, 15’ (SEVIRI is used) –BARG (V3): 45 km, 15’ u CERES, ES-8 Edition 1-CV + in-flight gain changes + Revision 1 for SW gain –FM1,FM2,FM3: All cross-track ! u Time period: 25/3-30/4/2006

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007

ARG SW Rad. G/C

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Estimation Gerb-1/CERES ratio

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007

With flatter GERB spectral response u Gerb/Ceres ratios are closer to 1. u Best agreement for cs bright veg., dark desert, bright desert. u Strong overestimation cs ocean, less strong overestimation cs dark veg., thin clouds. u Underestimation for thick clouds

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Older comparison Gerb-1/CERES, used data u GERB-1, Edition 1 –ARG: GERB PSF (basic 45 km), 17’ u CERES, ES-8 Edition 2 + Revision 1 –FM1: cross-track –FM2: GERB scan/RAPS/desert aerosol scan –FM3: RAPS u Time period: 7/2004

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007

u Ratios more or less comparable to 3-4/2006 comparison, larger deviation from 1. u Differences due to sampling ?

GIST, Abingdon, 5/2007 Conclusions u With ‘dummy’ GERB-1 spectral response –the GERB/CERES ratios are closer to 1. –largest overestimation by GERB for clear sky ocean. –tendency for underestimation by GERB for thick clouds. u To be discussed how to obtain best spectral response –New ground measurements –In-flight measurements by comparison with spectrometer –Tune to comparison with CERES
