The Hyperspectral InfraRed Atmospheric Sounder (HIRAS), the first Chinese sun-synchronous hyperspectral infrared sounder onboard FengYun 3D (FY-3D), was launched on 15 November 2017. It will play a significant role in improving forecast accuracy of numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems. However, sun glint effects on the FY-3D HIRAS 3.9 μm channels cannot be currently estimated by radiative transfer models. In this study, a new method for quantifying sun glint effects has been developed through a cubic fitting relationship between sun glint angles and the observed brightness temperature minus simulated brightness temperature (O − B) after bias correction. The results show that the brightness temperatures of channel 2275 (2550 cm−1) are higher over the ocean between 40°S and 40°N within areas of sun glint angle less than 40°; in these regions, O − B values can reach 10 K during the daytime. Daytime global mean clear-sky O − B biases from channel 2035 (2400 cm−1) to channel 2275 (2550 cm−1) increase gradually from 0 to 2.5 K. In contrast, daytime O − B biases after sun glint correction are within ±0.2 K, indicating that the corrected radiances are suitable to be assimilated into NWP systems.
