26. -1. Reflected sunlight is comparable to the instrument noise level. For the south polar region, spectral radiance corresponding to that expected for solar reflectance by a Lambertian surface at the pole with albedo of 0.5 was subtracted from the TES observation before converting to brightness temperatures.
