By: CUNY CREST Institute The International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) was established in 1982 as part of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) to collect weather satellite radiance measurements and to analyze them to infer the global distribution of clouds, their properties, and their diurnal, seasonal and interannual variations. The resulting datasets and analysis products are being used to study the role of clouds in climate, both their effects on radiative energy exchanges and their role in the global water cycle. To find out more about the ISCCP, visit the website at http://isccp.giss.nasa.gov/ About CUNY CREST Institute As a Science and Educational partner with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), CUNY CREST Institute provides cutting edge research and products that are continuously refined for top government science agencies such as NOAA, the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the Department of the Navy. The multidisciplinary Institute is also charged with educating and training the next generation of scientists, and includes over 70 collaborating Faculty across an international consortium of universities. These institutions form a world-class research and educational effort in remote sensing applied to earth, atmospheric, environmental, and marine sciences.
