Outcomes

Action GIR.20160908.1: Denis Jouglet (CNES) to apply spectral averaging method to calculate static weightings for generating 10cm-1 pseudo channels for AIRS-IASI comparison over 3 year period (2013-03-01/2016-03-01) - and consider application for CrIS -IASI comparisons.

Action GIR.20160908.2: Dorothée Coppens (EUMETSAT) to look at impact of CrIS responsivity changes related to apodisation.

Action GIR.20160908.3: Dave Tobin (SSEC) to regenerate comparison results in 10K bins over 3 year period (2013-03-01/2016-03-01), describe method and share raw SNO results.

Action GIR.20160908.4: Tim Hewison (EUMETSAT) to regenerate comparison results in 10K bins and redo double-difference analysis, expressing results in BT, radiance and % radiance.

Recommendation: Manik Bali (NOAA) to investigate adding incidence angle matching to AATSR-IASI comparison, with weighting according to the variance of the SNO radiances.

Recommendation: Manik Bali (NOAA) to review outline for report on Traceability and Uncertainty of GSICS Infrared Reference Sensors and propose how his AATSR-IASI analysis could be included/referenced.
