Important Case:

1
Important Case 5 Sep 2006 Tripod Complex pyroCb
plume near Lake Superior CALIPSO slices through
OMI AI max (15.6), which traces back to Tripod
Complex blowup on 3 Sep (local time). Plume is
also caught dead center by Terra/MISR Plume
altitude 11-12 km (tropopause region) Should
be excellent opportunity to compare MISR plume
heights With CALIPSO, for thick UTLS smoke plume.
Should be able to get MISR AOD and other
qualitiessmoke footprint has no cloud in
it. Should also be excellent opportunity to get
aerosol qualities from AI, since We have a tight
constraint on plume altitude (with MISR/MODIS AOD)

Terra flies directly overhead too. Should be
able to get good MISR hgts and aerosol properties.
