ملخص

Lunar is the second largest field-of-angle object near the Earth, and its reflectance can be considered stable to 10–8 per year. Thus, lunar is selected as the radiometric standard for the calibration of Earth-orbiting satellite-borne instruments and as the radiance source at night similar to solar at daytime for ground-based and satellite remote sensing. However, the precision of existing lunar irradiance models is insufficient to satisfy application requirements. To improve lunar irradiance models and verify the accuracy of the models, a three-month Earth-based observation of lunar was conducted on December 2015 by the National Satellite Meteorological Center, China Meteorological Administration. The hyper-spectral irradiance of lunar ranging from 399 nm to 1060 nm was retrieved by an imaging spectrometer in Lijiang, Yunnan. This study compared Earth-based lunar observations and other models (ROLO and MT2009 models). Results show that the observations are more similar to the ROLO model than to the MT2009 model, and the difference between the two models is larger in the shortwave infrared region than in the visible region. The average relative difference between the ROLO model and ground-based observations is approximately 5.86%. Causes of this difference are discussed in this study, which provides a theoretical foundation for establishing an accurate model of lunar irradiance.
