Abstract: Over the years, data from different satellites has provided invaluable information about Earth’s atmosphere, land and oceans. The thermal emissive bands (TEB) on the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) are comprised of 16 spectral bands with wavelengths ranging from 3.7 to 14.4 µm. MODIS TEB are calibrated on orbit on a scan-by-scan basis using an on-board blackbody (BB). Sentinel-3 Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR), launched on 16 February 2016, has 11 spe…
