Excuse a very basic question: would that be one pixel at one wavelength or do you get an IR spectrum for that pixel?

Excuse a very basic question: would that be one pixel at one wavelength or do you get an IR spectrum for that pixel? Well, there's a spectrum all right, but as the AGU abstract states, the specular reflection has no effect on the wavelengths shortward of 5um. So there's a spectrum within the 5um window, and upper limits below that. - Jason |
