ABSTRACT
The Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget (GERB) instrument on MSG-1 (Meteosat-8), measures the
outgoing longwave and reflected solar energy every 15 minutes for the whole of the MSG region. These
data, which are the first high accuracy broadband measurements at such high temporal resolution, will be
presented both as instantaneous radiances and fluxes and averaged into monthly means for all data points
