Cloud Microphysical Retrievals

Cloud Microphysical Retrievals is a methodological framework in atmospheric remote sensing that infers the physical characteristics of cloud particles—such as size, phase, concentration, and shape—from measured radiative signals, distinguished by its reliance on the inversion of observed optical and multispectral data to derive microscale properties of clouds.
