MODIS Cloud Optical Property Retrieval Uncertainties Derived from Pixel-Level Radiometric Error EstimatesMODIS retrievals of cloud optical thickness and effective particle radius employ a well-known VNIR/SWIR solar reflectance technique. For this type of algorithm, we evaluate the uncertainty in simultaneous retrievals of these two parameters to pixel-level (scene-dependent) radiometric error estimates as well as other tractable error sources.
