4 Sun radiation Earth radiation Ch11: 13.4  Wavelength (micron) Watt/ m 2 and micron Ozone Carbon dioxid Water vapour

5 Comparison of radiation sources sun - earth For wave length < 5  m solar radiation is dominant For wave length > 5  m radiation of earth is dominant only VIS VIS + IR only IR Ch01, 02, 03, 12: only sun radiation Ch04: both: radiation from sun and earth Ch 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11: only thermal earth radiation Sun radiation Earth radiation Watt/ m 2 and micron

7 Maximal signal from around 870 hPa Weighting functions Source: EUMETSAT

8 Figure 3d Maximal signal from around 820 hPa Weighting functions Source: EUMETSAT

9 Application areas for the CO2 channel Qualitative application of images: –No additional features compared to the IR window channels –No special application for qualitative image interpretation (at the time being) Quantitative applications: –temperature profiles –instability –winds
