There are no direct user requirements for the Earth Radiation Budget defined in the Cloud_cci project. Looking at the GCOS ECV requirements for Earth Radiation Budget [https://gcos.wmo.int/en/essential-climate-variables/earth-radiation/ecv-requirements|https://gcos.wmo.int/en/essential-climate-variables/earth-radiation/ecv-requirements] (Last accessed on 28/02/2023) the values for RSF and OLR are 1 W/m² uncertainty, while the TCDR dataset achieves an accuracy of 5.72 W/m² for RSF and 1.72 W/m² for OLR, therefore they currently do not meet the GCOS requirements. ICDR accuracies (estimate with the dataset up to march 2022) are consistent with TCDR accuracy for OLR and slightly lower for RSF. Please find more detailed information about the target requirements in the corresponding (Target Requirement and Gap Analysis Document) TRGAD [D2].
