Abnormalities:
Up to date information regarding abnormalities on the POES spacecraft and instruments can be found at:
http://www.oso.noaa.gov/poesstatus/.
This website allows a user to search and sort on any POES spacecraft, subsystem or instrument status. Once a user narrows down their window of
interest, further details can be obtained by going to the NOAA/NESDIS/Office of Satellite Operations' (OSO) archive of weekly status reports at:
http://noaasis.noaa.gov/NOAASIS/ml/podocs.html.

Tables D.4-8 and D.4-9 contain the corresponding spectral response values for NOAA-18 AVHRR/3
Channels 1, 2, 3A and Channels 3B, 4 and 5, respectively. Note: Negative response values were
caused by system response noise and are to be ignored but are included in the table for completeness.

Table D.4-17 contains the measured channel characteristics for NOAA-18 AMSU-A (channels 1-15). The central frequencies are interpolated
from the temperature dependent data to 15 C. The f1, f2, f3, and f4 for channels 11-14 are computed
from tabulated values. All values are for 15 C. Detailed information on the terminology used in this table can be found in Section 3.3.2.1.
