Comparison between measured cloudy DBIS spectrum
in the 500-1500 cm-1 region (black) and synthetic brightness temperature
spectrum (red) obtained with CHARTS/LBLRTM using mixed water/ice
spherical particles. The total particles column density for this
case is 25.5 g/m2. The spectrum in green has been generated by
increasing water and ice concentration by 42% to better match
the measured data in the 2500-3000 cm-1 region. 
Comparison between measured cloudy DBIS spectrum

(red) obtained with CHARTS/LBLRTM using same water/ice particles
concentrations as above. The spectrum in green has been generated
by increasing water and ice concentration by 42% to better match
the measured data.
