  • Improved determination of cloud-free radiances for oceans

    Creator:
    Burden, Arthur R.
    Abstract:
    Improvements have been made to the spatial coherence method for automatically determining cloud-free ocean radiances in satellite imagery by incorporating the spectral signatures of reflecting surfaces. The spatial coherence method relies on the fact that small-scale cloud-free regions typically exhibit uniform emission and uniform reflection. While small-scale overcast regions typically...
