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.

Validation Report following the 3rd MERIS data reprocessing
This document prepared by the MERIS Quality Working Group (QWG) corresponds to the Validation Report following the 3rd MERIS data reprocessing. It aims at qualifying and quantifying the accuracy of the MERIS L2 products generated with the version 8.0 of MERIS Ground Segment prototype (MEGS), delivered to the whole community through the ODESA software (http://earth.eo.esa.int/odesa/). It is equivalent to version 6.0 of the Instrument Processing Facilities (IPF) at ESRIN.

The Status of the SCIAMACHY Active Thermal Control (ATC)
The Active Thermal Control System (ATC) is providing thermal stability to SCIAMACHY's optical bench module (OBM). Over the past 10 years in-orbit mission lifetime the ATC has proven extremely reliable. Although regular monitoring has revealed some degradation ??? less than what was predicted before launch ??? only a single adjustment was necessary so far to keep the OBM temperature within the specified limit. The ATC adjustment occurred in October 2008 in orbit 34643 [RD1 with referencing RD3-RD6].
