Beyond the workshop: Developing inter-calibration products based on Lunar Observations Tim Hewison (EUMETSAT) [GSICS Research Working Group Chair] Special Issue of the IEEE TGRS on “ Inter-Calibration of Satellite Instruments ” :

Slide: 2 Overview Introduction to GSICS Scoping Lunar Inter-Calibration products Choice of Reference Instrument Error Budgets Key Issues – Phase Angle-Dependence – Spectral Consistency Moving Forward

Slide: 3 Global Space-based Inter-Calibration System What is GSICS? –Global Space-based Inter-Calibration System –Initiative of CGMS and WMO –Effort to produce consistent, well-calibrated data from the international constellation of Earth Observing satellites What are the basic strategies of GSICS? –Improve on-orbit calibration by developing an integrated inter-comparison system Initially for GEO-LEO Inter-satellite calibration Being extended to LEO-LEO Using external references as necessary –Best practices for calibration & characterisation This will allow us to: –Improve consistency between instruments –Reduce bias in Level 1 and 2 products –Provide traceability of measurements –Retrospectively re-calibrate archive data –Better specify future instruments EUMETSATCNESJMA NOAACMAKMA ISRONASAWMO USGSNISTJAXA ROSHYDROMETIMDESA

Slide: 4 GSICS Organisation GSICS Exec Panel GSICS Coordination Center GSICS Research Working Group VIS/NIR Sub-Group WGCV IVOS Microwave Sub-Group WGCV MWSGGPM X-CAL UV Sub-Group WGCV ACSGCEOS ACC Future Sub-Groups... GSICS Data Working Group CGMSWMO Identified potential collaborations with CEOS

Slide: 5 GSICS Principles Systematic generation of inter-calibration products for Level 1 data from satellite sensors to compare, monitor and correct the calibration of monitored instruments to community references by generating calibration corrections on a routine operational basis with specified uncertainties through well-documented, peer-reviewed procedures based on various techniques to ensure consistent and robust results Delivery to users Free and open access Adopting community standards To promote Greater understanding of instruments’ absolute calibration, by analysing the root causes of biases More accurate and more globally consistent retrieved L2 products Inter-operability for more accurate environmental, climate and weather forecasting products TRACEABILITY / UNBROKEN CHAINS OF COMPARISONS

Slide: 6 GSICS Bias Monitoring Routine comparisons of satellite radiances against reference GSICS Correction Function to correct issued radiances for consistent calibration with reference GSICS Calibration Alternative Calibration Coefficients = operational calibration + inter-calibration corrections GSICS Reports & Guidelines Recommendations to modify processing/practices Design and Operation of future satellite instruments For Operational Environmental Satellites Infra-red recalibration (GEO and LEO) Pre-Operational & Demo status (current operational satellites) Near real-time and re-analysis Visible and near-infrared recalibration (GEO and LEO) In development within GSICS Microwave – Conical & Cross-track Scanners (LEO) In development with GPM XCAL Historic Instruments In development for SCOPE-CM GSICS Product Types

Slide: 7 Scoping GSICS Lunar Inter-Calibration Products Double differences of irradiances from monitored and reference instruments, w.r.t. a model: (I MON -I mod )-(I REF -I mod ) – Assumption: Model errors will cancel out (linearity) – No need to adjust to absolute scale In general: Correction=Polynomial function of Radiance, ΔL=g(L MON ) – Simplest case: Linear scaling of operational gain Allow GSICS Corrections to vary with time – To track calibration drifts of monitored instrument – Defined from combination of data over extended period with negligible drift

Slide: 8 Future Extensions to GSICS Lunar Inter-Calibration Products Combine with other methods – Aim to provide users ONE product – For all VIS/NIR/SWIR channels – Cover full dynamic range (linearity) – e.g. DCC + Lunar – Optimal combination weighted by uncertainty of each method Spectral consistency – Inter-channel Bias Matrix Tie to absolute standards – SI Traceability Lunar Disc Reflectance Range

Slide: 9 Choice of Inter-Calibration Reference Common primary reference for all GSICS Products in Reflected Solar Band Initially, Aqua/MODIS – For all channels? Migration to Other Reference Instruments – e.g. SNPP/VIIRS – Handled using concept of delta Corrections – Developed for GEO-LEO IR – Based on double-difference of different inter-calibration products – Ensures traceability back to primary reference – Ensures radiometric consistency – Eventually hyperspectral reference instruments? TBC! Needs robust and consistent uncertainty estimates – Both on observed and modelled irradiances

Slide: 10 Error Budgets Needed for comparison and optimal combination of – Observed Irradiances – Modelled Irradiances Construct Error Budget (Type B evaluations) for uncertainties due to – Systematic Biases – Random Errors Based on sensitivity analysis of – GIRO inputs – Observed Irradiance Calculation Validate Error Budgets (Type A evaluations) – For Systematic Parts – by comparison between different instruments – For Random Parts - By repeated evaluations over range of conditions (and time!) Need to repeat analysis for new ROLO versions

Slide: 11 Previously on this Channel... From 2014 GRWG Annual Meeting: – Sophie Lacherade (CNES) “Moon synergy" 3mb3mb Uncertainties for Moon cross-calibration due to the lack of correct spectral interpolation between PHR and MODIS (cross-calibration limited to a band-to- band cross-calibration) Estimation of the interband accuracy based on Moon acquisitions ≈ 3% – Tom Stone (USGS) “Using the Moon as Cross-Calibration reference” 3n3n Xiong et al., “Comparison of MODIS and PLEIADES Lunar observations” Proc. SPIE 9241Proc. SPIE 9241 calibration differences between MODIS and PLEIADES are general less than 2% with an exception of about 3% for the NIR channel

Slide: 12 Key Issues Solar Variability – Impact on time series comparisons Phase Angle Dependence – Quantify uncertainty – Independently for each wavelength – Distinction from non-linearity – Distinction from stray light Spectral Consistency – Investigate Different possible spectral interpolation methods – Including Apollo sample smoothing – Quantify uncertainty – Inter-channel Bias estimation Implement improvements of ROLO model

Slide: 13 Moving Forward Confirm what are the Key Issues? – Here by Thursday Who will investigate each of the Key Issues? – Identify on Thursday Who will generate Error Budgets? – Identify on Thursday
