Simultaneous Nadir Overpass (SNO) Time Difference: <= 120 Sec FOV distance difference: <=(12+14)/4.0 km = 6.5 km Angle Difference: ABS(cos(a1)/cos(a2)-1) <= 0.01 CrIS IASI From Changyong Cao SNO Spectra during full resolution test On August 27 2013

SNOs Latitude Distribution Time Series The SNOs between SNPP and Aqua occurred every 2-3 days. the SNOs between MetOp and SNPP occurred every 50 days. Fortunately, once an SNO event occurs, their orbits will continuously cross each other every orbit.

Scene Uniformity Effects CrIS FOV footprint Cut off values Histogram of VIIRS radiances Radiance nonuniformity within the instrument’s FOV affects ILS associated with each true wavenumber Inhomogeneous scenes can introduce spatial collocation uncertainties. The standard deviation to mean ratio of the VIIRS radiances in band 16 is used to select uniform scenes. Single Line Self-Apodization Sinc Self-Apodization + Sinc

Scene-Dependent Bias

CrIS versus AIRS: The best we can do without reducing the spectral resolution AIRS Spectrum is convolved with CrIS SRFs (three bands) at each AIRS spectral grid Resembling CrIS into high-resolution data (e.g. 2^15) and they are convolved with AIRS SRFs After that, they are at the same spectral grid The results should be carefully interpreted with cautious.

CrIS versus AIRS Daily averaged SNO observations North: 164/325 South: 161/325 CrIS AIRS Large spread could be due to the resampling uncertainties and AIRS bad channels

Time Series of CrIS-AIRS Atmospheric Window Water Vapor Window

Conclusion Radiometric and spectral consistency of four IR hyperspectral sounders is fundamental for inter-calibration and climate application. Inter-comparison of CrIS with IASI/Metop-A, IASI/Metop-B, and AIRS have been made for one year’s of SNO observations in 2013 at polar regions. CrIS vs. IASI CrIS and IASI well agree each other at LWIR and MWIR bands with 0.1-0.2K differences No apparent scene dependent bias At SWIR band, a sharp increases can be clearly seen at spectral transition region. The reason is still under investigation. CrIS vs. AIRS Resampling errors still remain when converting AIRS and CrIS onto common spectral grids. It is challenging to compare CrIS and AIRS without losing spectral resolution. CrIS and AIRS agree each other at LWIR and MWIR bands from 0.2 to 0.4 K . At SWIR band, a sharp increases can be clearly seen at spectral transition region. A weak seasonal variation can been seen for CrIS-AIRS at water vapor absorption region. The above results will be carefully inspected again using the SNOs at low latitudes. The comparison will be continued until end of sensor mission, which will provide fundamental information about consistency of hyperspectral sounders to the community.

Comparison between ADL and IDPS The differences between ADL and IDPS are negligible. From Xin Jin/STAR

CrIS-IASI with New a2 values Metop-A New a2 Metop-B CrIS IASI CrIS IASI Old a2 Old a2 CrIS-IASI CrIS-IASI New a2 The differences between CrIS-IASI is reduced at LW bands with new a2 values.

Radiances Consistency of CrIS, IASI, and AIRS GSICS Framework: Independent Calibration Assessment GEOS Decontamination Each Agency routinely uses AIRS/IASI to assess calibration accuracy of its own geostationary instruments Spectral and radiometric consistency among CrIS, AIRS and IASI is significant for GSICS community.

Model Verification AIRS – Simulations (Reanalysis) Hyperspectral radiance measurements can serve as a benchmark for model assessment, but the consistency is the key.
