TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate how well the calculated radiances from hyperspectral radiative transfer models (RTMs) compare to cloudy radiances observed by AIRS and to one another.
Development of a fast and accurate PCRTM radiative transfer model in the solar spectral region.
TL;DR: A fast and accurate principal component-based radiative transfer model in the solar spectral region (PCRTM-SOLAR) has been developed and is capable of simulating reflected solar spectra in both clear sky and cloudy atmospheric conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, a single-footprint retrieval approach for clear and cloudy conditions, which uses the thermodynamic and cloud fields from numerical weather prediction (NWP) models as a first guess, together with a simple cloud-representation model coupled to a fast scattering radiative transfer algorithm (RTA), is described.
The Application of PCRTM Physical Retrieval Methodology for IASI Cloudy Scene Analysis
TL;DR: The use of a principal-component-based radiative transfer model (PCRTM) and a physical inversion methodology to simultaneously retrieve cloud radiative and microphysical properties along with atmospheric thermodynamic parameters is demonstrated.
