description abstractNimbus 4 data (11.5-?m) channel and ATS 3 digitized data were analyzed for three days during April and May, 1970. Cloud-top temperature, as measured by the 11.5-?m channel of the satellite radiometer, shows a close negative correlation with cloud brightness measured by the ATS 3 satellite. This is especially true in well-developed cumulonimbus clouds. An estimate of cloud heights corresponding to cloud-top temperature was obtained by using radiosonde data and radar images, and the relationships between the cloud thickness and brightness counts were derived for the cumulonimbus clouds.
