Gap analyses by variable or by type of mission or by WIGOS subcomponent
Variable sorting criteria
Each instrument is assigned with a 5-step rating, evaluated as a blend of several elements. For this particular Variable, the rating is driven by:
whether measuring total (TSI) and/or spectral solar irradiance;
the covered spectral range.
RATING CRITERIA:
1
Line-resolving spectrometer in the water vapour bands around 6.3 and 18 mm, and CO2 band around 15 mm
2
Line-resolving spectrometer in the water vapour band around 6.3 mm, and CO2 bands around 4.3 and 15 mm
3
Line-resolving spectrometer in the water vapour band around 6.3 mm, and the CO2 band around 15 mm
4
Short-wave spectrometer covering UV + VIS + NIR + SWIR
5
Short-wave spectrometer covering UV + VIS + NIR or (UV + VIS) or (NIR + SWIR)
