Journal ArticleDOI
The MODIS Cloud Optical and Microphysical Products: Collection 6 Updates and Examples From Terra and Aqua
Steven Platnick,Kerry Meyer,Michael D. King,Galina Wind,Nandana Amarasinghe,Benjamin Marchant,G. Thomas Arnold,Zhibo Zhang,Paul A. Hubanks,Robert E. Holz,Ping Yang,William L. Ridgway,Jerome Riedi +12 more
TL;DR: The C6 algorithm changes can collectively result in significant changes relative to C5, though the magnitude depends on the data set and the pixel's retrieval location in the cloud parameter space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cloud Detection with MODIS. Part II: Validation
Steven A. Ackerman,Robert E. Holz,Richard A. Frey,Edwin W. Eloranta,B. C. Maddux,Matthew J. McGill +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of the MODIS cloud mask algorithm is compared with lidar observations from ground [Arctic High-Spectral Resolution Lidar] and aircraft [Cloud Physics LIDar], and satellite-borne [Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS)] platforms.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Mixed-Phase Arctic Cloud Experiment (M-PACE) as mentioned in this paper was conducted on the North Slope of Alaska to collect a data set suitable to study interactions between microphysics, dynamics and radiative transfer in mixed-phase Arctic clouds.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on and repeatedly link back to the primary data source, satellite aerosol remote sensing and associated observability issues, and discuss aspects of SEA's physical, socio-economic and biological geography relevant to meteorology and observability problems associated with clouds and precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
CALIPSO/CALIOP Cloud Phase Discrimination Algorithm
Yongxiang Hu,David M. Winker,Mark A. Vaughan,Bing Lin,Ali Omar,Charles R. Trepte,David Flittner,Ping Yang,Shaima L. Nasiri,Bryan A. Baum,Robert E. Holz,Wenbo Sun,Zhaoyan Liu,Zhien Wang,Stuart A. Young,Knut Stamnes,Jianping Huang,Ralph Kuehn +17 more
TL;DR: The current cloud thermodynamic phase discrimination by Cloud-Aerosol Lidar Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) is based on the depolarization of backscattered light measured by its lidar as discussed by the authors.
