ReamMe file: # 3 Parent directories each consist the dataset for the co-located MODIS and CERES data in both the CERES feild of view (FOV; not containing clouds) and the cloud field scale. AllClds- Considering cloud fields of all cloud types with the strict cloud mask of MODIS. AllClds_relaxed- Considering cloud fields of all cloud types with the relaxed cloud mask of MODIS. LowClds- Considering cloud fields with cloud tops < 5 km with the strict cloud mask of MODIS. # Each parent directory contains the original co-loacted dataset and matrices used for calcualtions and plotting for the paper. Co-locatedData contains matrices per year, basin and month for either solar spectrum (SW) or longwave infrared (LW): FOV scale matrices (rows per cloud field of 200x200 km^2 and columns for single FOV): F- TOA flux; I- braodband radiance; TSM1f- fraction of MODIS pixels (area including PSF) with phi function (eq. 16) > 1; TSM2f- fraction of MODIS pixels (area including PSF) with phi function (eq. 16) > 2; mRHO- mean RHO in FOV; mDFNC- mean distance from nearest cloud in FOV; mTSM- mean phi; meanSumI- mean sum of MODIS radiance along the spectral dimention; VZA- CERES viewing zenith angle; SZA- solar zenith angle; RAA- relative azimuth angle; AODfov- CERES product AOD in FOV; CLRfov- CERES product clear sky fraction in FOV; CLRspecSW- mean radiaince per MODIS channel in pure clear-sky FOVs; CLRspecSW- mean radiaince per MODIS channel in pure clear-sky FOV; MODICLRspec- radiaince per MODIS pixel and channel in pure clear-sky pixels; MODangles- MODIS SZA,VZA,RAA per pixel. CF- cloud fraction per cloud field PlottingMatrices: FclrswCERES- SW clear-sky CERES FOVs flux; FclrswMOD- SW clear-sky MODIS pixels flux (after ANN model); swEPS- SW RHO per FOV; Fsw- SW flux per FOV; CTREsw- REctz CERES only; CTREsw_CERES- REctz CERES-MODIS; CTREsw_MOD- REctz MODIS only; mKtwsw- mean K for CTZ FOVs; Ktwswstd- std for averaging K for CTZ FOVs; Kswtw- K for all FOVs; meanRHO- mean RHO; meanTSM- mean phi function; EPSsw- mean epsilon per cloud field; swtwfovs- CERES FOVs defined as CTZ (e.g., Fsw[swtwfovs]); swclrfovs- CERES FOVs defined as PCS (e.g., Fsw[swclrfovs]); swmodis_ceres_error- ANN model uncertinties and biases; YEAR- analyzed years; MONTH- analyzed month; REGION-analyzed basin; Solarls- soalr wavelengths; Thermalls- LW wavelengths; *** same for LW *** Added plts (*.png) with some statistics for the dataset
