The synthetic input data for the retrievals of the radius of droplets and cloud optical thickness using measurements at visible and near - infrared channels (856 and 1630nm). A. A. Kokhanovsky University of Bremen alexk@iup.physik.uni-bremen.de 26.12.2009 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCIATRAN results for reflectance R=pi*I/cos(SZA)/F_0 (no gasesous/aerosol absorption/scattering) cos(SZA)=0.5 cos(VZA)=1.0 RAA=0.0 water cloud surface albedo=0 for both wavelengths Input( R_vis,R_nir, e.g., 0.2320,0.2957 - for the first retrieval, see tables below) for the retrieval technique. In these columns reflectances multiplied by 10 000 are given. Each element R_856nm(I,J) corresponds to the element R_1630nm(I,J). 8*9=72 - dimension of the matrices.
