convective cloud fractions in
the tropics detected from HIRS and AMSU-B in July 2001. (a) HIRS T11
< 215 K (IR method 1), (b) HIRS T11 < 215 K and Delta T < 1 K,
(c) the AMSU-B method, (d) overestimation ov deep convection detected
by IR method 1 with respect to thosse detectd by the AMSU-B method.
