The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Assessment of Global Cloud Datasets from Satellites: Project and Database Initiated by the GEWEX Radiation Panel (2013, background): “Height contributions of CRE depend on the absorbing spectral band used in the retrieval (Platnick 2000): in general, absorption increases with increasing wavelength into the short-and mid-wave infrared (Platnick et al. 2003).”
The MODIS Cloud Optical and Microphysical Products: Collection 6 Updates and Examples From Terra and Aqua (2017, background): “While the three absorbing spectral channels used to retrieve CER have been shown to have different penetration depths within a plane-parallel vertically inhomogeneous cloud [70], users should nevertheless be cautious drawing”
Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Clouds Observed by MODIS Onboard the Terra and Aqua Satellites (2013, background): “This algorithm, known as clear sky restoral, is described in some detail in [15] and discussed extensively by Pincus et al. [33] and Zhang and Platnick [53].”
Confronting the Challenge of Modeling Cloud and Precipitation Microphysics (2020, background): “Second, especially in the case of passive measurements, satellite retrievals of microphysical values are often constrained to a particular (often ill‐defined) depth within cloud top (Platnick, 2000; van Diedenhoven, Fridlind, et al., 2012) or pertain to column‐integrated quantities only.”
