Thursday, 17 November 2011

• Workshop
  Three break-up sessions to discuss the results of the CREW-3 comparison study:
  

- 1- WG Cloud vertical placement
- 2- WG Cloud microphysical properties
- 3- WG Generation of climate datasets

• Session on Cloud Climatologies
  GEWEX-CAW, climate data records, generation of and uncertainties in Level-3 datasets
  
• Panel discussion: How to prepare better climate datasets?

Friday, 18 November 2011

• Workshop (Continued)
  Break-up sessions to discuss the findings of the Golden Days comparison of cloud retrievals
  

- 1- Presentation of WG Cloud vertical placement
- 2- Presentation of WG Cloud microphysical properties
- 3- Presentation of WG Generation of climate datasets

• Final discussion
  Results of the workshop, recommendations for next meeting, plans for publications.
