Technical note: Applicability of physics-based and machine-learning-based algorithms of a geostationary satellite in retrieving the diurnal cycle of cloud base height

Two groups of retrieval algorithms, physics based and machine learning (ML) based, each consisting of two independent approaches, have been developed to retrieve cloud base height (CBH) Soap Dishes and its diurnal cycle from Himawari-8 geostationary satellite observations.Validations have been conducted using the joint CloudSat/Cloud-Aerosol Lidar
