Flight: 01-055
Date: 31 March 2001
Location: Texas / Oklahoma SGP Site / Hutchinson, KS
Deployment: TX-2001
Principal Investigators: Moeller (UWisc)
Additional Sensors: S-HIS, VIS, 12" RC-10 (CIR)
Objective: Terra Underpass @17:29 for MODIS H2O vapor comparison; S-HIS CNG detection
Data Evaluation
Overall quality is good
The Minco Heater ouput was insufficient to counter the extremely cold ambient air temperatures.
Port 3 (bands 26-41; 3.04-5.44µm) remains noisy, but it's performance remains stable and is much improved over first several flights in this campaign.
