CloudSat and CALIPSO cloud and aerosol information is convolved with CERES and MODIS cloud and radiation data to produce a merged 3-dimensional cloud and radiation dataset.
A simple statistical model for describing the probability distributions of liquid water path and cloud fraction in low clouds has been developed. The model is shown to reproduce realistically the diurnal cycle in the cloud fraction and horizontal inhomogeneity of marine stratocumulus. Further, the model produces realistic statistics for the horizontal variability of liquid water path within boundary...
