Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The atmospheric radiance is collected by the front-end optics(mainly steering mirrors and a telescope) and directed to the Michelson interferometer which allows to measure broadband spectra with a very good spectral resolution. The second input port to the interferometer is closed with a cold blackbody to suppress disturbing radiance. 3, record 2, English, - atmospheric%20radiance

La radiance marine étant obtenue par soustraction de la radiance atmosphérique de la radiance totale, une surestimation de la composante atmosphérique a pour effet de sous-estimer la radiance marine ; ce qui est particulièrement apparent aux courtes longueurs d'onde. 1, record 2, French, - radiance%20atmosph%C3%A9rique

Le pré-traitement concerne les images acquises tandis que le post-traitement concerne les images traitées. Dans les deux cas, les images ne peuvent échapper aux effets de dégradations dus essentiellement aux phénomènes physiques tels : la diffraction (déviation) du système optique [;] l le flou dû au mouvement de l'image durant son acquisition. Pour pallier à ces dégradations on utilise en général le filtrage. 3, record 3, French, - post%2Dtraitement
