TL;DR: The Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Cloud Assessment as discussed by the authors provides the first coordinated intercomparison of publicly available, standard global cloud products (gridded monthly statistics) retrieved from measurements of multispectral imagers (some with multiangle view and polarization capabilities).
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Clouds Observed by MODIS Onboard the Terra and Aqua Satellites
TL;DR: The cloud effective particle radius of liquid water clouds is significantly larger over ocean than land, consistent with the variation in hygroscopic aerosol concentrations that provide cloud condensation nuclei necessary for cloud formation.
