We developed a dual-satellite stereoscopic cloud top height(CTH)retrieval algorithm based on the visible band(0.65 pm)data of Fengyun-4A(FY-4A)and FY-4B.This algorithm offers an extensive longitude coverage from 55°E to 177°W.The analysis of system error based on error theory shows that the CTH we retrieved has an accuracy of 0.20-0.88 km and an uncertainty of 0.24-1.08 km over the entire area.The space resolution of the CTH we retrieved reached less than 0.005°.We conducted a CTH retrieval experiment and proceeded to compare our results with FY-4B's CTH product and the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations(CALIPSO).Com-pared to CALIPSO,the CTH we retrieved has a bias of-2.4 km and the correlation coefficient is 0.80.In general,two next-generation geostationary satellites were used simultaneously to retrieve the CTH in our study,demonstrat-ing the ability of this satellite combination to obtain better-quality CTH products by stereoscopic retrieval.
