GOES-13 Sounder striping
(From 48 hours of limb (earth
and space) measurements on Julian days
343-345)
Note that the striping is
greater on the West limb than
on the East limb by about a factor of 2 for most bands.

Example of striping correction applied to Sounder band-7. Reduced striping (left to right) is seen for both water (top) and land (bottom) areas in enhanced images from. Striping however appears to have increased over the coldest cloud tops (top left to right).
