An ideal blackbody surface with an emissivity of 1 will have an apparent temperature (as perceived by a remote thermal sensor) equal to the actual temperature. Since emissivity values are always lower than 1, remote sensing of actual temperature is inaccurate. 3, record 1, English, - apparent%20temperature
