Although the specifications of the payload, the mete- orological imager （MI）, have been verified during both ground and in-orbit tests, there is the possibility of variation and/or degradation of data quality due to many different reasons, such as the accumulation of contaminants, the aging of instrument components, and unexpected external disturbance. Thus, for better utilization of MI data, it is imperative to continuously monitor and maintain the data quality. As a part of such activity, this study presents an inter-calibration, based on the Global Space-based Inter-Calibration System （GSICS）, between the MI data and the high quality hyperspectral data from the In- frared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer （IASI） of the Metop-A satellite. Both sets of data, acquired for three years from April 2011 to March 2014, are processed to prepare the matchup dataset, which is spatially collocated, temporally concurrent, angularly coincident, and spectrally comparable. The results show that the MI data are stable within the specifications and show no significant degradation during the study period. However, the water vapor channel shows a rather large bias value of -0.77 K, with a root-mean-square difference （RMSD） of around 1.1 K, which is thought to be due to the shift in the spectral response function. The shortwave channel shows a maximum RMSD of around 1.39 K, mainly due to the coarse digitization at the lower temperature. The inter-comparison results are re-checked through a sensitivity analysis with different sets of threshold values used for the matchup dataset. Based on this, we confirm that the overall quality of the MI data meets the user requirements and maintains the expected performance, although the water vapor channel requires further investigation.展开更多

The purpose of the studies was to check the reliability of the alanine-PE film dosime- ters made by CIAE, which will be used as transfer standard dosimetry system mainly for electron beam irradiation. The expanded uncertainty of CIAE alanine/EPR dosimetry system was 4.1% for doses not higher than 10 kGy and 5.4% for those above 10 kGy (k=2). CIAE alanine-PE film dosimeters were sent to JAERI, RISO (National Labora- tory in Denmark) and INCT respectively, which were irradiated by Co gamma-rays or electron beams in each labo- 60 ratory. The irradiated dosimeters were then sent back to CIAE for electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. The agreements were obtained to be ±1.9% for gamma-ray dose measurement and ±4.3% for electron beam dose measurement, which were all within the combined uncertainty of the reference and CIAE alanine/EPR dosimetry system. Furthermore, the overall mean ratio was found to be 0.995 with 1.8% in the coefficient of variation (CV). The preliminary inter-comparison studies indicated that CIAE film alanine/EPR dosimetry system had the potential to be used as a transfer dosimetry system for high dose measurement.展开更多

The assessment for June to October 2006 to 2020 showed MAIAC AOD agreed the best with AERONET AOD;CALIOP AOD differed the strongest from the AERONET AOD. Cross-correlations of CALIOP AOD along the satellite path indicated that AOD-values 40 km up-and-down the path often failed to represent the AERONET AOD-values within ±30 min of the overpass in this region dominated by easterly winds. Typically, CALIOP AOD was lower than AERONET AOD and MAIAC AOD at the sites, especially, at sites with mean AOD below 0.1. Generally, MODIS AOD values exceeded those of MAIAC. Comparison of CALIOP, MAIAC, and MODIS products resampled on a 0.25° × 0.25° grid revealed differences among the products caused by their temporal and spatial resolution, sample habit and size. Typically, the MODIS AOD-product showed the most details in AOD distribution. Despite differences in AOD-values, all products provided similar temporal evolution of elevated and lower AOD.展开更多
