The 16 values correspond to the background row of the ACCD in the memory zone. Each value gives the rate at which the ACCD pixel signal increases in a specific pixel in the Rayleigh memory and integration zone per second. The first value corresponds to the left most useful pixel on the ACCD in a row. unit: "ACCD counts/(ACCD pixel*s)" 5 Mie_Background_Rates ascii array[16] attribute: unit ascii string size: 26 fixed value: "ACCD counts/(ACCD pixel*s)" ascii double This list contains 16 values, separated by blanks. The 16 values correspond to the background row of the ACCD in the memory zone. Each value gives the rate at which the ACCD pixel signal increases in a specific pixel in the Mie memory and integration zone per second. The first value corresponds to the left most useful pixel on the ACCD in a row. unit: "ACCD counts/(ACCD pixel*s)" 6 DCO_Parameters xml record Structure holding mean DCO and DCO std dev values.
