Impact of the One-Stream Cloud Detection Method on the Assimilation of AMSU-A Data in GRAPES

Clouds affect the assimilation of microwave data from satellites and therefore the detection of clouds is important under both clear sky and cloudy conditions. We introduce a new cloud detection method based on the assimilation of data from the advanced microwave sounder unit A (AMSU-A) and the micr...
