Cimel Sunphotometer (CSPHOT) Lunar Spectral Deconvolution Algorithm (SDA) Retrieval Version 4.1 Level 1.0 (csphotsdalunarv3)

Browse Data

The Cimel sunphotometer (CSPHOT) is a multi-channel, automatic sun-and-sky scanning radiometer that measures the direct solar irradiance and sky radiance at the Earth s surface. It takes measurements at predetermined discrete wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared parts of the spectrum to determine atmospheric transmission and scattering properties. The CSPHOT only operates during daylight (sun above horizon).
