Fig. 6From: Retrieval of radiative and microphysical properties of clouds from multispectral infrared measurementsRetrieval test results by retrieval simulations for clouds with different COT and CTT. It is assumed that occurrence of the ice phase increases with decreasing CTT from 0 to –40 °C. CER is assumed to be 13 μm for liquid clouds and 32 μm for ice clouds. MBE, RMSEs, and DOFS are evaluated from retrievals with optimal solutions and correct cloud phase determination. For each cloud state, 1000 retrievals from noise-superimposed simulated measurements are attemptedBack to article page
