Note: units for Esun "W/(m^2 um)".

GOES-16 was calculated with the Vendor original SRF and the solar spectral irradiance of "MNewKur" (modified New Kurucz) from MODTRAN 4.0.

GOES-17 was calculated with the CWG processed SRF and the spectral solar irradiance of "MNewKur" (modified New Kurucz) from MODTRAN 4.0.

GOES-18 were calculated with CWG processed SRF and TSIS-1 Hybrid Solar Reference Spectrum (HSRS), Version 1 (p005nm).

GOES-19 were calculated with CWG processed SRF and TSIS-1 Hybrid Solar Reference Spectrum (HSRS), Version 2 (p005nm).
