CERES Level 2 product SSF, how is this instantaneous footprint information defined, is it consistent with the transit time of the satellite, for example, how many times the satellite has passed through a certain area, how many footprint information, is that right? Because I downloaded the instantane...

Help Post: Hello, I want to consult a question, is the CERES website data, data download, there are two data download location, a CERES Ordering, Subseeting, the Visualization TOOL, another is the CERES at ASDC, I would like to know whether these two data are products of different companies? Or some...

Help help I would like to ask you, in the description of cloud properties in the CERES cloud and Earth radiation budget system, what is the effective height of the cloud and the effective pressure of the cloud respectively, whether it means that there is a cloud, whether the effective height of the ...

What is the relationship between cloud effective temperature, cloud effective altitude, cloud effective pressure and cloud radiation? Is the effective temperature and height of the cloud information used to represent the temperature in the cloud and the geometric thickness of the cloud?

Thank you very much for your answer. I am still a little confused, because I do not know how to calculate the saturated adiabatic lapse rate. Therefore, I would like to ask whether the geometric thickness of the cloud can be retrieved by using other micro-parameter information of the cloud (such as ...

How to obtain cloud information in CERES 'product SYN1deg, because there is only cloud top height information, no cloud base height information, how to determine the position of the cloud? What is the effective height of the cloud and how is it defined?
