description abstractA number of large tropical cumulus clouds which developed and decayed over a one-day period were monitored by both ship-based radar and the reflected solar radiance experiment on the geosynchronous satellite ATS-3. A comparison of the radar height of these clouds to their reflected solar radiance has shown a strong correlation (0.88) such that cumulus cloud height and growth may apparently be inferred from a geostationary satellite platform without the use of ground-based radar.
