In thermal detectors, radiant energy is absorbed and converted into heat energy, and the detector responds to the consequent change in temperature of the absorbing medium. Thermal detectors include ordinary thermometers, thermocouples, bolometers, and pyranometers. In this third post of the Landsat 8 series we will implement, step by step, the procedures explained in the Landsat web site for converting the digital numbers in the satellite images to geophysical measurements of spectral radiance, as measured at the sensor and without atmospheric correction, called ‘top-of-atmosphere’ or simply TOA.

Teach Astronomy - A graphic representation of Wein's entative stellar spectra from a range of spectral oscopy is vital to understanding the temperatures of stars. We can study stellar spectra and measure which color is the most strongly radiated by a star. Radiance temperature is one of the most important and widely used concepts in radiation thermometry.

The usual definition of radiance temperature does not strictly apply for complex situations, such as when surrounding radiation is non-negligible or when corrections are applied to measurements made using an inappropriate emissivity setting. A novel concept, generalized effective radiance Cited by: 1.

In radiometry, radiance is the radiant flux emitted, reflected, transmitted or received by a given surface, per unit solid angle per unit projected area.

Spectral radiance is the radiance of a surface per unit frequency or wavelength, depending on whether the spectrum is taken as a function of frequency or of wavelength. These are directional quantities.
