Cover Story: Satellite observations play a critical role in characterizing Earth’s global cloud cover. For highly structured clouds such as boundary layer cumulus, however, satellite measurements of cloud properties such as cloud droplet size tend to have large uncertainties. This is because current algorithms do not consider the impact of three-dimensional cloud heterogeneity when interpreting the observations. This study explores a possible path to improve the accuracy of cloud property estimations by first determining the effect of three-dimensional heterogeneity on large-scale cloud statistics and then distributing the overall effects to individual pixels. Results for a simulated dataset show that the proposed approach can help improve satellite-based estimations of cumulus cloud properties in both old and new satellite datasets. View this paper
