A new technique for estimating the outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) from the radiances observations in the infrared window (WIN; 10.5-12.5 μm) and water vapor (WV; 5.7-7.1 μm) channels onboard the geostationary operational Indian National Satellite (INSAT) Kalpana has been developed. The OLR is estimated from the WIN and WV radiances via genetic algorithm (GA). The transfer functions that relate OLR and narrowband radiances (WIN and WV) were developed using radiative transfer model. It is shown that inclusion of the WV information in the development of transfer function significantly reduces the OLR retrieval error as compared to the single WIN channel approach. The analysis shows that the model OLR may be retrieved within 2.5 Wm-2 rmse using WIN and WV channels, which is smaller than the rmse by earlier methods used for OLR estimation using two channels (WIN and WV). GA technique shows the clear advantage over multi-channel regression in the OLR retrieval from WIN and WV radiances.
