Presentation
The team on Applied Spectroscopy (AS) belongs to the University of Basilicata.The group has extensive expertise in infrared instrumentation for remote sensing & earth observation.
AS-UNIBAS is a leading group in line-by-line radiative transfer models and instrumentation & science using Fourier transforms interferometers for the sounding of earth's atmosphere from space.
In particular the AS-UNIBAS team blends expertise in
- IR and Far IR spectroscopy and atmospheric radiative transfer (RT) in presence of gaseous components
Properties of atmospheric particulate components (clouds, aerosols) and RT with multiple scattering
Scientific support to instrument development, radiometers, spectrometers and FTS spectrometers
Use of operational and future remote sounding instrumentation in Meteorology and Climatology Laser Doppler Velocimetry applied to the analysis of weak turbulent flows.
- Non linear optoelectronics device applied to LDV.
The system has been used to perform observations of the velocity field in weakly turbulent flow,
with emphasis on the check of the ESS (Extended Self-Similarity) theory.
Fourier Transform Spectrometer in the range 100 - 1100 cm-1 (REFIR: Radiation Explorer in the Far InfraRed, I-BEST: Interferometer for Basic Observations of Emitted Spectral Radiance of the Troposphere). The spectrometers are able to sense the water vapour rotational band and has been developed to address some basics issues in the spectroscopy of water vapour continuum, which are important for modelling atmospheric radiative balances.
