Clouds cover about 70% of Earth's surface and play a dominant role in the energy and water
cycle of our planet. Only satellite observations provide a continuous survey of the state of the …

One of the most successful demonstrations of an integrated approach to observe Earth from
multiple perspectives is the A-Train satellite constellation. The science enabled by this …

A large, long-standing, and pervasive climate model bias is excessive absorbed shortwave
radiation (ASR) over the midlatitude oceans, especially the Southern Ocean. This study …

Clouds substantially affect Earth's energy budget by reflecting solar radiation back to space
and by restricting emission of thermal radiation to space. They are perhaps the largest …
