What Does CSBT Stand For?

CSBT stands for Clear Sky Brightness Temperature

CSBT, or Clear Sky Brightness Temperature, refers to the theoretical temperature of a clear sky, expressed in Kelvin, that defines the brightness of the sky as observed in various wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. It is a critical parameter in atmospheric studies, remote sensing, and climate modeling, as it helps quantify the amount of solar radiation absorbed and re-emitted by the atmosphere, aiding in the understanding of energy balance and the Earth's radiative processes.
