Visible Channel Long Term Drift Analysis Using Desert Targets

Visible Channel Long Term Drift Analysis Using Desert Targets. The stability of AATSR visible channel calibrations have been measured using data from stable desert targets. The calibration drift rates obtained from the time-series are less than 3.5% per year and comparable to those measured for ATSR-2. Application of the drift correction to AATSR L1B images is discussed.
