Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Comments about the Results and Correction
- K1_CONSTANT_BAND_10 = 774.8853 (W·m−2·μm−1)
- K2_CONSTANT_BAND_10 = 1321.0789 (K)
- K1_CONSTANT_BAND_11 = 480.8883 (W·m−2·μm−1)
- K2_CONSTANT_BAND_11 = 1201.1442 (K)
- is the thermal radiance measured at the top of the atmosphere;
- is the atmospheric transmittance for specific wavelengths;
- is the surface emissivity at specific wavelengths;
- are the downwelling and upwelling radiance, respectively, at specific wavelengths (the contribution of the atmosphere);
- is the thermal radiance at the Earth’s surface.
