Global cloud top height retrieval using SCIAMACHY limb spectra: model studies and first results

Global cloud top height retrieval using SCIAMACHY limb spectra: model studies and first results

Cloud top heights (CTHs) are retrieved for the period 1 January 2003 to 7 April 2012 using height-resolved limb spectra measured with the SCanning Imaging Absorption SpectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) on board ENVISAT (ENVIronmental SATellite). In this study, we present the retrie...
