  • 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.
