Alternate Title: Microtops-II

Brief Description (Abstract):

This multispectral instrument is designed to measure direct solar irradiance in five channels of selected wavelengths. It uses this information to provide atmospheric properties, such as aerosol optical thickness, precipitable water vapor column, and ozone. Standard wavelengths to choose from are 340nm, 380nm, 440nm, 500nm, 675nm, 870nm, 936nm, and 1020nm

Status: Ongoing

Purpose: To measure aerosol optical thickness, direct solar irradiance, water vapor column and ozone
