Bayesian Cloud Detection over Land for Climate Data Records [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2022
Cloud detection is a necessary step in the generation of land surface temperature (LST) climate data records (CDRs) and affects data quality and uncertainty. We present here a sensor-independent Bayesian cloud detection algorithm and show that it is suitable for use in the production of LST CDRs.

An Overview of European Efforts in Generating Climate Data Records [PDF]

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2018
Abstract The Coordinating Earth Observation Data Validation for Reanalysis for Climate Services project (CORE-CLIMAX) aimed to substantiate how Copernicus observations and products can contribute to climate change analyses. CORE-CLIMAX assessed the European capability to provide climate data records (CDRs) of essential climate variables (
