Abstract :
This paper describes the new development and the improvement of the 1.6 mum InGaAs transfer standard radiometer to be used for the preflight cross-calibration measurement between the GOSAT and the OCO. Both are to be launched in 2008 for monitoring the density distributions of greenhouse gases.
