Notes. The column Basis functions lists the combinations of indices l and m used to model variations with AC coordinate on a CCD () and with time within a time granule (). Multiplicity of dependencies gives the number of distinct functions or values for each dependency, or a dash if there is no dependency: basis functions (Klm , Eq. (5)), granuleindex (j), field index (f), CCD index (n), gate (g), stitch block (b), window class (w), effective wavenumber (νeff ), magnitude (G), saturation (S), subpixel phase (ϕ), time since last charge injection (Δt), and AC scan rate (). The last column is the product of multiplicities, equal to the number of calibration parameters for the effect. The SMs are not considered here.
