The theoretical relationship between top-of-cloud reflectance in the 0.87 and 2.1 μm MODIS channels for liquid water (red) and the C6 ice cloud model (blue) for various values of COT and CER. Reflectance observations can occur in regions of the solution space that are unambiguously liquid or ice, but may also lie in regions that are ambiguous regarding phase.
