Satellite thermal infrared (TIR) observations, combined with machine‐learning methods, enable nighttime retrievals of cloud optical thickness (COT), but their cloud‐top‐dominated radiances provide ambiguous information for optically thick clouds. Passive microwave (MW) observations provide complementary sensitivity to...

Accurate high‐resolution precipitation information is essential for hydrologic modeling, extreme‐event monitoring, and climate assessment, yet, conventional satellite precipitation products are often constrained by the relatively coarse spatial resolution of infrared and microwave observations. We present a quantitativ...

Polar clouds play a crucial role in Arctic amplification and the surface radiation budget in a warming climate. However, accurate retrievals of cloud optical thickness (COT) and cloud effective radius (CER) over polar regions remain challenging because snow and ice surfaces have high and variable reflectance, solar-vie...

High-resolution atmospheric thermodynamic information is essential for resolving localized weather processes in complex urbanized regions such as the Yangtze River Delta (YRD). However, existing global reanalysis products are limited by coarse spatial resolution, constraining their ability to represent fine-scale the...
