MMR Calibration Data (FIFE)

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: June 09, 2026 at 09:19 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 08, 2026
The MMR Calibration Data Set contains radiance data collected in the summer of 1987 and in July and August of 1989 via a Modular Multiband Radiometer (MMR) instrument. The MMR instrument monitored a nearly lambertian calibration panel stationed near the center of the FIFE study area. The radiances recorded from this instrument can be used to monitor solar insolation and clouds. In some cases, these data were also used to calculate the reflectance factor for reflective radiances measured over vegetation using other MMR instruments located at other FIFE sites or mounted on a helicopter.
