IASI
The IASI instrument
The IASI instrument was designed by the Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES) to monitor the atmospheric state for weather prediction and climate/chemistry purposes. More specifically to measure accurate temperature and water vapour profiles, as well as the concentrations ...
Monitoring of atmospheric composition with IASI
The radiance signal recorded by IASI is a composite of the initial longwave infrared emission (the Earth black body emission at the location of the measurement), modified for cloud free scenes by gaseous absorption and emission processes along the path. When a cloud is present in ...

IASI-FT project
IASI is also an excellent sounder for climate monitoring. The ERC advanced IASI-FT project consists of producing climatological temperature series at several altitudes and integrated radiative fluxes (outgoing longwave radiation).
