The restored in 2008 to the first NPOESS current record of total solar irradiance, satellite, because of its critical role in comprising reasonable overlapping time determining the natural forcing of the series of measurements from different space- climate system and because of the high borne instruments, extends uninterrupted priority given by the 2007 National Research since 1978 and, although it is one of the Council (NRC) Decadal Survey, Earth longest continuous space-based climate Science and Applications from Space.

The best calibrated and lowest noise number of solar observations that are made. source of solar irradiance measurements In addition, neither the TCTE module nor used to support climate research and the spacecraft bus on STPSat-3 are applications therefore remains the anticipated to have a long lifespan, with the instruments onboard SORCE (Kopp and likelihood of insufficient overlap with Lean, 2011)

Finally, successive TSI instruments are calibrated in part against STUDY APPROACH AND overlapping TSI measurements provided METHODOLOGY from reliable heritage instruments. Thus, if the TCTE mission proves to be unsuccessful, To carry out its charge, the committee or short-lived, the resulting gap could held one in-person meeting during which introduce additional uncertainties in the they heard input from NOAA staff and the calibration of future TSI instruments.
