Autonomous Above-Water Radiance Measurements from an Offshore Platform: A Field Assessment Experiment

An autonomous system for making above-water radiance measurements has been produced by adding a new measurement scenario to a CIMEL CE-318 sun photometer. The new system, called the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Photometer Revision for Incident Surface Measurement (SeaPRISM), combi...

Description
Summary:An autonomous system for making above-water radiance measurements has been produced by adding a new measurement scenario to a CIMEL CE-318 sun photometer. The new system, called the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Photometer Revision for Incident Surface Measurement (SeaPRISM), combines the normal CE-318 capability for measuring direct sun irradiance and sky radiance, with a new capability for measuring above-water radiance for the retrieval of water-leaving radiance.
