Ocean Sun Glint in the 8 to 12 Micron Region and Its Radiance Variation with OffGlint Sun Angle and Sensor Elevation

摘要

Ocean sun glint data taken in the 8 to 12 micron region with the BackgroundMeasurement and Analysis Program's (BMAP) infrared radiometric sensor was compiled and reduced. The average radiance and standard deviation for each sensor scan was calculated and graphed against the sun glint angle and the sensor elevation.
