“…From an operational viewpoint, the results of the current study do not contradict those reported by Vidal et al (2021) who addressed the sensitivity of the Split Window method to channel positions and bandwidths in the context of the TRISHNA mission. Overall, both studies converge toward a unique recommendation for the spectral configuration of the TRISHNA mission, with an overall error on surface temperature retrievals of 0.85 K. This is satisfactory in term of mission requirements ( 1.5 K), and is of the same order of magnitude as the precision requirements for further applications (0.8 K, cf Seguin et al, 1999;Hernandez-Baquero, 2000).…”
