The value of multiangle measurements for retrieving structurally and radiatively consistent properties of clouds, aerosols, and surfaces (2005, background): “Nonetheless, this capability is notable in light of a multiagency report on climate observing requirements (Ohring et al., 2004), which derived a decadal cloud height stability requirement of 30 m in order to detect variation attributable to climate change.”
The Spectral Irradiance of the Moon (2005, background): “On-board calibration systems for imaging instruments are designed for the greatest stability practical, but drifts of 1% to several percent over a 5 year lifetime appear to represent the current limitations (Gellman et al. 1993; Ohring et al. 2004).”
Exploring earth's atmosphere with radio occultation: contributions to weather, climate and space weather (2011, unknown): “In spite of the enormous importance of detecting climate trends, before RO there were no global atmospheric observing systems that could meet the stringent climate monitoring requirements of 0.5 K accuracy and better than 0.10 K decade − 1 stability (Ohring et al., 2005; Luntama et al., 2008).”
The COSMIC/FORMOSAT-3 Mission: Early Results (2008, background): “K accuracy and 0.04 K decade –1 stability (Ohring et al. 2005).”
