LightGBM-Based Bias Correction of ERA5 Upper-Tropospheric Temperature Profiles and Its Differential Impacts on Cloud-Top-Height Retrievals Over East Asia
The quality of atmospheric background temperature profiles is a critical factor governing the accuracy of passive-satellite cloud-top-height (CTH) retrievals. However, existing CTH retrieval studies generally treat profiles from the Fifth-Generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) atmospheric...
