A method for comparing properties of cirrus clouds in global climate models with those retrieved from IR sounder satellite observations
A methodology to compare cloud properties simulated by global climate models with those retrieved from observations by satellite-based infrared (IR) sounders has been developed. The relatively high spectral resolution in the CO2 absorption band of these instruments leads to especially reliable cirru...
