Clouds, precipitation and radiation - MSG-CPP products

The Cloud Physical Properties (CPP) algorithm is being developed at KNMI to derive cloud, precipitation and radiation products from satellite instruments such as SEVIRI onboard the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) satellite. The CPP algorithm development is largely done inside EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring (CM SAF), but also in other research projects. The CPP cloud top height is derived from the Nowcasting SAF (NWC SAF) cloud top temperature and height (CTTH) product.
