Extending aquatic spectral information with the first radiometric IR-B field observations

This dataset contains absolute radiometric observations of aquatic and celestial targets spanning a spectral range of 313 to 1640nm. Absolute radiometric observations were obtained using analog and digital instruments with similar hardware and processing. Observations at individual wavebands were obtained objectively and independently. Radiometric observations of the Moon and the Sun were obtained at Mauna Loa (HI) and Mount Laguna (CA), and radiometric observations of aquatic targets were obtained in the Southern Ocean, Mission Bay (CA), San Pablo Bay (CA), Grizzly Bay (CA), and Lake Tahoe (CA and NV). Additional verification (e.g., from satellite matchups, model results, or alternate processing methodologies) are included when appropriate. Additional methodological details are provided in the associated publication.
