- Abstract
The article presents a study on ozone monitoring instrument (OMI) cloud retrievals using fast simulators for satellite cloud optical centroid pressure retrievals. It discusses how the study was conducted which validated fast simulators that gives estimates of the cloud optical centroid pressure (OCP) with vertical profile of optical extinction. The study reveals that fast simulators can be used to simulate cloud OCP output provided that cloud overlap is also considered.
