Title: Investigation of Pre- and Post-Flight Radiometric Calibration Uncertainties from Surface Based Measurements

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/756728· OSTI ID:756728

A new technique has been developed for inferring column ozone amounts and aerosol optical depths from zenith sky observations. A new radiometric calibration technique for large aperture remote sensing instruments observing the earth through space has been validated which subsequently increased the accuracy of remote sensing measurements of ozone and vertical profiles using measurements of back-scattered ultraviolet solar radiation.
