Summary

[edit]
Description
English: TSIS-1 Overview
  • Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Sensor (TSIS) measures total solar irradiance (TSI) and solar spectral irradiance (SSI). TSI helps establish Earth’s total energy input while SSI contributes to understanding how Earth’s atmosphere responds to solar output changes. Energy input minus outgoing energy determines Earth’s climate and energy from the Sun drives atmospheric and oceanic circulations on Earth. Knowing the magnitude and variability of solar irradiance is therefore essential to understanding Earth’s climate. Solar irradiance represents one of the longest climate data records derived from space-based observations – nearing 40 years of data – and researchers anticipate maintaining continuity of that record with TSIS.
