Plot cloud field properties derived from ASTER imgages on February 5

Posted on Do 06 August 2020 in cloud field properties • by Theresa Mieslinger • Tagged with code, ASTER, DAY-0205

Read pre-processed netCDF files containing cloud field properties from ASTER images and plot those. Most interesting are the cloud size distribution and a 2d histogram showing the positive correlation between cloud sizes and their average cloud top heights.
