Abstract :
ISMAR (International SubMillimetre Airborne Radiometer) is currently under development by the Met Office. This instrument can carry a range of receivers in a scanning instrument platform designed and certified for airborne use. It will be used for scientific atmopsheric research, as a satellite demonstrator and for validation/calibration of ICI (Ice Cloud Imager).
