Relationships among properties of marine stratocumulus derived from collocated CALIPSO and MODIS observations

Creator:

Hayes, C. R., Coakley, J. A. Jr., and Tahnk, W. R.

Abstract:

Collocated Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) imagery and Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) 532 nm total attenuated backscatter coefficients were used to identify 50 km scale segments for ocean regions that had only a single layer of marine stratocumulus. On the basis of whether the underlying ocean...
