UW-SSEC Science Plots (10/29/2004)
NOTES:(updated 31 Oct 2004)
Note: (1) The S-HIS data worked until 18.6 UTC when the BB controller failed.
The Scanning-HIS data are preliminary and will be replaced
with final calibrated datasets. Please check the data archive for the most
recent calibrated S-HIS data.

(UW-Madison) Space Science and Engineering Center (UW-SSEC) Cooperative
Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS)in collaboration with
NASA and NOAA.

Matlab m-file script used to create Science Plots
- S-HIS Mean and Std of Unapodized Radiance ( Nadir Matlab mat-file Zenith Matlab mat-file )
- Latitude/Longitude/Altitude ( [The red dots on the lat/lon/alt plot indicate the spectra used to create the time averaged spectral plots shown.]Matlab fig file , PNG file )
- Nadir Time Series of Observed Brightness Temperatures for selected channels ( Matlab fig file , PNG file )
- Nadir Radiance Mean: ( Matlab fig

- Nadir Radiance Std. Deviation: ( [The standard deviation of the
scene is the 1-sigma STD (divide by sqrt(NumberOfSamples) to get the
uncertainty in the mean).]
