Criteria for LW Matches• Use GERB L2.0 ARGs for LW radiances &
time
• Use RMIB’s geolocations for GERB
• Use CERES Edition 2 ES8s
• View zenith angles within 5°
• Now comparison is based on the row in theARG array, not GERB detector number

Conclusions
• CERES has been operated in 4 campaigns tomeasure radiances which are co-aligned withGERB during 2 NH winters & 2 NH summers.
• CERES serves as a transfer radiometer incomparing the 256 GERB detectors.
• These conclusions apply to detectors 49-174. Fordetectors 1-48 and 175-256, the sampling andresults are not as good.
• GERB detectors vary by ±2% among themselves.

Conclusions (cont.)• Between adjacent detectors for SW, there is a
random uncorrelated change of ~_% and a longrange structure (over a score or more) of ±2%superimposed.
• For SW radiances, GERB/CERES is in range of0.93 to 0.97.
• Comparisons are reproducible within ±1% amongcampaigns.
• For LW radiances, GERB/CERES is in range of1.00 ± 0.01.
