We present an algorithm to retrieve land surface temperatures from wideband
thermal infrared measurements using the model of Li et al. [10]. Forward s
imulation and inversion demonstrates the method to be stable in the presenc
e of observation noise. Results from inversions performed using field measu
rements show that errors are generally less than the uncertainty in the obs
ervations.
