Multitemporal-patch ensemble inversion of coupled surface-atmosphere radiative transfer models for land surface characterization
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used coupled atmosphere-surface radiative transfer models (SMAC+SAIL+PROSPECT) to estimate some key biophysical variables from top of atmosphere canopy reflectance data.

Simultaneously inferring above‐cloud absorbing aerosol optical thickness and underlying liquid phase cloud optical and microphysical properties using MODIS
TL;DR: In this paper, an algorithm is introduced to simultaneously retrieve above-cloud aerosol optical thickness (AOT), the cloud optical thickness, and cloud effective particle radius (CER) of the underlying MBL clouds while also providing pixel-level estimates of retrieval uncertainty.

Studying Altocumulus with Ice Virga Using Ground-Based Active and Passive Remote Sensors
TL;DR: In this article, a combined active and passive remote sensing approach for studying supercooled altocumulus with ice virga, using multiple remote sensor observations, is presented, and the results demonstrate the capabilities of this approach in retrieving radiatively important microphysical properties to characterize this type of mixed-phase cloud.

A description of the correlated k distribution method for modeling nongray gaseous absorption, thermal emission, and multiple scattering in vertically inhomogeneous atmospheres
Andrew A. Lacis,Valdar Oinas +1 more
TL;DR: A radiative transfer method for treating nongray gaseous absorption and thermal emission in vertically inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres is described in this paper, where probability density distributions of absorption coefficient strength are derived from line-by-line calculations to construct line-By-line and band model based k distributions.
