             abstract = "Cross-calibration is one of the various methods applied for Earth 
                         Observation Satellites sensor calibration. In the 
                         cross-calibration procedure, one sensor is calibrated against 
                         another sensor, in which the radiometric calibration is better 
                         known, via near-simultaneous imaging of a common ground target. 
                         One of the most important steps during the cross-calibration is 
                         the Spectral Band Adjustment Factor (SBAF) assessment. The SBAF is 
                         used to compensate the differences in the spectral responses of 
                         the sensors, avoiding large uncertainties in cross-calibration 
                         results. The investigation described in this work focussed on the 
                         evaluation of the SBAFs inherent uncertainties using Monte Carlo 
                         Simulation method. Basically, the Monte Carlo approach is based on 
                         calculating multiple integral by random sampling. The SBAFs were 
                         developed for analogous Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager and 
                         CBERS 4 Multispectral Camera spectral bands. The Hyperion 
                         hyperspectral sensor on-board Earth Observing-1 was utilized to 
                         understand the spectral profile of the target and to derive the 
                         SBAF. This study was performed over two pseudo invariant 
                         calibration sites: Algodones Dunes and Libya-4. The spectral 
                         uncertainty of the SBAFs using Monte Carlo was found to be within 
                         0.011.79%. The results suggested that the uncertainty of the SBAFs 
                         is dependent on the correlation between the input variables: the 
                         higher the correlation, the lowest is the SBAF uncertainty.",
