}Abstract. Clouds are a key modulator of the Earth energy budget at the top
of the atmosphere and at the surface. While the cloud top height is
operationally retrieved with global coverage, only few methods have been
proposed to determine cloud base height ( zbase ) from satellite
measurements. This study presents a new approach to retrieve cloud base
heights using the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) on the Terra
satellite. It can be applied if some cloud gaps occur within the… Expand
