MIPAS Level 1B algorithms overview: operational processing and characterization
This paper gives an overview of the MIPAS Level 1B (L1B) processor whose main objective is to calibrate atmospheric measurements radiometrically, spectrally and geo-located. It presents also the results of instrument characterization done on ground and during the first years inflight. An accurate calibration is mandatory for high quality atmospheric retrievals. MIPAS has shown very good perform...
متن کاملSpectroscopic evidence for NAT, STS, and ice in MIPAS infrared limb emission measurements of polar stratospheric clouds
We have analyzed mid-infrared limb-emission measurements of polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) by the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) during the Antarctic winter 2003 with respect to PSC composition. Coincident Lidar observations from McMurdo were used for comparison with PSC types 1a, 1b and 2. Application of new refractive index data of β-NAT have allowed to a...
متن کاملSpectral Characterisation and Calibration of Mipas
RESUME The Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) forms part of the atmospheric payload on board ESA's polar orbiting Envisat, launched on 1 March 2002. The Calibration & Validation phase comprises various special calibration measurements. There is a focus on radiometric and spectral characterisation, as well as the line-of-sight pointing accuracy. This paper deals wi...
متن کاملMipas In-flight Calibration and Processor Verification
The Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding is one of the atmospheric payload instruments on board ESA’s ENVISAT which was successfully launched into a sun-synchronous, polar orbit on 1 March 2002. Covering a broad spectral range from 685 2410 cm-1, at high spectral resolution and radiometric sensitivity the instrument permits unprecedent observations of a large number of atmo...
متن کاملCharacterization of MIPAS elevation pointing
Sufficient knowledge of the pointing is essential for analyses of limb emission measurements. The scientific retrieval processor for MIPAS on ENVISAT operated at IMK allows the retrieval of pointing information in terms of tangent altitudes along with temperature. The retrieved tangent altitudes are independent of systematic offsets in the engineering Line-Of-Sight (LOS) information delivered w...
