This dataset is one of the 6 datasets generated in Cloud_cci; all of them being based on passive-imager satellite measurements. This dataset is based on MODIS (onboard Terra) measurements and contains a variety of cloud properties which were derived employing the Community Cloud retrieval for Climate (CC4CL) retrieval system. The core cloud properties contained in the Cloud_cci MODIS-Terra dataset are cloud mask/fraction, cloud phase, cloud top pressure/height/temperature, cloud optical thickness, cloud effective radius and cloud liquid/ice water path. Spectral cloud albedo is also included as experimental product. Level-3C product files contain monthly averages and histograms of the mentioned cloud properties together with propagated uncertainty measures. series f1ab07b5292f4813bd3090b51d270aa8 eng -90.0 -180.0 90.0 -180.0 90.0 180.0 -90.0 180.0 -90.0 -180.0 Public data: access to these data is available to both registered and non-registered users. http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/metadata-codelist/LimitationsOnPublicAccess/noLimitations
