Reflected Energy Product

Differencing the 10.7 and daytime 3.9 micron radiances gives a reflected energy product that more clearly distinguishes ice and liquid water clouds. (Caution: bare ground may be difficult to distinguish from low water clouds, and snow cover may appear similar to thin ice clouds.)
