About
Dr. Yasushi Mitomi is a leading figure in satellite remote sensing, with a primary focus on the vicarious calibration of spaceborne optical sensors. His most cited work, "Vicarious calibration of GLI by ground observation data" (2005), established a rigorous methodology for calibrating the Global Imager (GLI) across visible to near-infrared channels. In this seminal study, Dr. Mitomi pioneered the use of in-situ data from the Marine Optical Buoy (MOBY) to derive normalized water-leaving radiance, combined with precise measurements of aerosol optical properties, to achieve highly accurate calibration over ocean targets. This approach has become a foundational technique in the field, directly improving the reliability of ocean color and atmospheric data products. With over 21 citations, his work continues to influence current calibration strategies for Earth observation missions. Dr. Mitomi’s contributions are essential for ensuring the long-term stability and accuracy of satellite-derived environmental data, supporting critical research in climate monitoring and oceanography.
