Corrigendum to “Extended optimal estimation techniques for sea surface temperature from the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infra-Red Imager (SEVIRI)” [Remote Sens. Environ. 131 (2013) 287–297]

In sea surface temperature (SST) retrieval from infra-red imagery using coefficient-based algorithms, a technique called atmospheric correction smoothing is sometimes used to reduce noise in the retrieved SST. It is shown that the sensitivity of retrieved SST to change in true SST is not significantly modified by atmospheric correction smoothing, correcting an earlier statement to the contrary.
