Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of satellite observation, in particular to a cold-space external calibration method and device for a space-borne salinity meter. Background technique [0002] Seawater salinity is one of the important parameters to describe the state of the ocean. Studying its change and distribution is of great significance for analyzing the characteristics of the ocean itself and understanding the role of the ocean in the complex air-sea system. Moreover, the salinity of seawater is also a research object focused on by other disciplines and application fields such as meteorology, ecology, hydrology and fishery. [0003] In the process of studying seawater salinity, it is first necessary to obtain sea surface salinity; at present, the brightness temperature data of the target sea surface is directly obtained through satellite-mounted microwave radiometers, and then the seawater salinity is retrieved from the observed brightness tempe...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the above method of retrieving the sea surface salinity value, the accuracy of the observed brightness temperature has a great influence on the retrieved seawater salinity, and the observed value will have a certain deviation due to the attenuation of the instrument performance of the salinity meter. In order to ensure the accurate determination of the brightness temperature observed by the salinity meter and correct the deviation of the brightness temperature observed by the instrument in time, it is necessary to periodically calibrate the salinity meter externally to obtain the instrument calibration coefficient for correcting the deviation
