“…During FRAPPE, the WV-DIAL was collocated with a continually-operating passive infrared radiometer (AERI: Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer.) This is a passive infrared remote sensing instrument that utilizes an interference technique to retrieve atmospheric emitted radiance [14,15,16,17]. Starting with initial temperature and humidity profiles based on statistical models, an iterative solution to the radiative transfer equations is utilized to reproduce the measured atmospheric emitted radiance.…”

An advanced diode-laser-based water vapor differential absorption lidar (WV-DIAL) has been developed. The next generation design was built on the success of previous diode-laser-based prototypes and enables accurate measurement of water vapor closer to the ground surface, in rapidly changing atmospheric conditions, and in daytime cloudy conditions up to cloud base. The lidar provides up to 1 min resolution, 150 m range resolved measurements of water vapor in a broad range of atmospheric conditions. A description of the instrument and results from its initial field test in 2014 are discussed.

:The National Institute of Meteorological Research (NIMR) has operated the Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectrometer which is the Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) in Anmyeon island, Korea since June 2010. The ground-based AERI with similar hyper-spectral infrared sensor to satellite could be an alternative way to validate satellite-based remote sensing. In this regard, the NIMR has focused on the improvement of retrieval quality from the AERI, particularly clouddata filtering method. The AERI spectrum which is measured on a typical clear day is selected reference spectrum and we used region of atmospheric window. We performed test of threshold in order to select valid threshold. We retrieved methane using new method which is used reference spectrum, and the other method which is used KLAPS cloud cover information, each retrieved methane was compared with that of ground-based in-situ measurements. The quality of AERI methane retrievals of new method was significantly more improved than method of used KLAPS. In addition, the comparison of vertical total column of methane from AERI and GOSAT shows good result.

“…The Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI, initially developed for the US DOE ARM program by UW-SSEC [5]; and now produced commercially by ABB, Quebec, CA) has demonstrated the capability to provide continuous temperature and water vapor profiling of the boundary layer (up to 3 km every 10 minutes) [6,7]. Examples are shown in Figure 4.…”

Abstract. Advanced capability for sounding the atmospheric state and for quantifying climate trends using IR spectrometers has made enormous strides in recent years. While substantial societal benefits have accrued from research and operational advanced sounders in polar orbit, many of the expected benefits from this new capability are being squandered. As presented in our IRS Union talk, capabilities for (1) advanced geostationary sounding for substantially improving severe weather warnings, (2) ground-based networks for continuous boundary layer monitoring, and (3) technological advances for acquiring high information content climate benchmark observations and for inter-calibrating other IR spacecraft instruments have not been realized (two have been delayed indefinitely). Fortunately, there are viable options for moving forward, which we identify in this review.
