Introduction to the effects table

Summary

In this recipe, we have:

  • Introduced the effects table
  • Seen how FIDUCEO codifies descriptors within the effects table
  • Seen how we can fill in an effects table for an example effect (detector noise, which contributes to uncertainty, C_{T}, in the counts seen by the AVHRR when looking at the calibration target)

In the next lesson, we will see how we can the information in effects table to combine effects using the Law of Propagation of Uncertainty.
