The Meteosat Third Generation geostationary satellite will be equipped with an infrared sounder sensing the Earth infrared emission in two bands between 670-1210 cm-1 and 1600-2250 cm-1 with a sampling rate of 0.625 cm-1. The main objective of the infrared sounder is to retrieve water vapour profiles and temperature. The paper provides an overview of the expected performance for surface properties and thermodynamic atmospheric sate.

Abstract

The Meteosat Third Generation geostationary satellite will be equipped with an infrared sounder sensing the Earth infrared emission in two bands between 670-1210 cm-1 and 1600-2250 cm-1 with a sampling rate of 0.625 cm-1. The main objective of the infrared sounder is to retrieve water vapour profiles and temperature. The paper provides an overview of the expected performance for surface properties and thermodynamic atmospheric sate.
