Initial report on polar mesospheric cloud observations by Himawari-8 [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2018 We provide an initial report on polar mesospheric cloud (PMC) observations by the Japanese Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) meteorological satellite Himawari-8. Heights of the observed PMCs were estimated to be 80–82 km.

Reliability Evaluation of the Joint Observation of Cloud Top Height by FY-4A and HIMAWARI-8
Remote Sensing, 2021 It is well known that the measurement of cloud top height (CTH) is important, and a geostationary satellite is an important measurement method. However, it is difficult for a single geostationary satellite to observe the global CTH, so joint observation ...

HOW WELL DOES SATELLITE FINE MODE AEROSOL PRODUCT VALIDATE WITH GROUND-BASED MEASUREMENTS FOR MODIS AND HIMAWARI-8? [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 Currently, the validation of MODIS and Himawari-8 aerosol products mostly focuses on AOD, but the validation of their fine mode aerosol data is limited. In this paper, 22 AERONET sites in Asia from 2015 to 2016 were selected to validate the MODIS and the
