30th International Symposium on Remote Sensing of the Environment (ISRSE) NASA Honolulu, Hawaii, USAThis paper discusses the stability of the AIRS instrument as measured pre-flight and in-orbit. In order differentiate instrument related changes with true changes in climate observations, the instrument stability must be demonstrated.

We discuss lessons learned on AIRS in the development and operations as well as plans for next generation systems including SIRAS, a wide field hyperspectral infrared imaging spectrometer which offers AIRS spectral performance at 24x the spatial resolution.
The atmospheric infrared sounder (AIRS) will fly onboard the NASA earth observing satellite (EOS) polar-orbiting aqua spacecraft.

This paper summarizes the results of testing and gives a detailed report on the spectral, radiometric and spatial performance of the AIRS.
The algorithm described in this document will be implemented as the AIRS Level 2 Product Generation Executive (PGE) at the Goddard Space Flight Center Distributed Active Archive Center.
This document describes the required validation activities for the AIRS/AMSU/HSB instrument suite in the post-launch period.
