A comparison of co-aligned, simultaneous measurements of METEOSAT 5 visible channel and ScaRaB/Meteor visible channel is presented. The METEOSAT data is calibrated using the ISCCP calibration in two steps: (1) nominal calibration, the best information available at the begin of data processing, and (2) absolute calibration, derived from comparison with the calibrated reference instrument (NOAA11, AVHRR). The comparison with the METEOSAT nominal calibration shows a good agreement between ScaRaB and METEOSAT for the entire duration of the ScaRaB mission. Absolutely calibrated data show a less good agreement and significant change in time. The ScaRaB and METEOSAT 5 instrument seem to be subject of the same degradation, if any. With respect to the NOAA11 standard, ScaRaB (and METEOSAT) seem to increase its sensitivity with time.
