Cloud-Base Height Estimation from VIIRS. Part I: Operational Algorithm Validation against CloudSat

The operational VIIRS cloud-base height (CBH) product from the Suomi-National Polar-Orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite is compared against observations of CBH from the cloud profiling radar (CPR) on board CloudSat. Because of the orbits of SNPP and CloudSat, these instruments provide nearly simul...
