Fast simulator for cloud optical centroid pressure

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Here, we describe a fast simulator for satellite-derived cloud optical centroid pressure, a parameter commonly used in trace-gas retrieval algorithms to describe the mean photon pathlength for backscattered sunlight in a cloud.
