Zusammenfassung |
This paper summarizes and classifies the
various approaches to validation of remote measurements
of atmospheric state variables, and tries to recommend a
clear and unambiguous terminology. The following approaches
have been identified: Intercomparison of individual profiles for
accuracy validation; statistical comparison of matched pairs
of measurements with respect to bias determination and precision
validation; statistical intercomparison of randomly sampled
measurements by two instruments, and comparison of a single
measurement to an ensemble of measurements. Applicable statistics
are shortly reviewed, and recipes for evaluation of the
co-incidence error due to less than perfect co-incidences are presented.
An approach is suggested to quantitatively validate profile
measurements when full covariance matrices are unavailable. |
