Abstract: To assimilate the all-sky infrared radiances of Himawari-8/AHI, we investigated the statistical characteristics of a radiance simulation from a mesoscale cloud-resolving model. Compared with AHI observations, the simulations tended to show insufficiently low brightness temperature… read more here.
