  • Abstract
    We have illustrated some of the issues and considerations required to understand remotely sensed cloud liquid water. The ultimate use of the data must be considered, i.e. the spatial and temporal scales required. Future spaceborne active instruments such as CloudSat will add a new perspective on CLW
