Description
Summary:The stability of the instrument is monitored routinely by the CNES Technical Expertise Centre, using onboard measurements, and by EUMETSAT, where stable, clear fields of view are compared with simulated radiances from numerical weather prediction model output. Since its launch, the instrument performance, which is discussed further in the next section, has been extremely stable.
