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:
the performance for temperature and humidity sounding;
the covered spectral range.
RATING CRITERIA:
1
Spectrometer covering the range 3.5-15 mm
2
Spectrometer covering the range 5-15 mm
3
Radiometer with channels in the MWIR and TIR windows, the H2O 6-8 mm band, and the CO2 4.3 and 15 mm bands
4
Radiometer with channels in the MWIR and TIR windows, the H2O 6-8 mm band, and the CO2 4.3 or 15 mm bands
Radiometer with channels in the MWIR and TIR windows, and the H2O 6-8 mm band
5
MW radiometer with sounding channels for temperature and humidity
MW radiometer with sounding channels for humidity
