Cirrus clouds are classified as the highest clouds in the atmosphere occurring generally from 7 to 18 km, depending on the global region of appearance, and have necessarily ice crystals in their composition. They still ...

Cirrus clouds are an interesting point in the research of the atmosphere due their behavior and the effect on the earth radiation budget. They can affect the atmospheric radiation budget by reflecting the incoming solar ...

Resumen: En el presente trabajo se analizan las principales propiedades ópticas de las nubes cirrus de la tropopausa, tales como el espesor óptico, coeficiente de extinción y atenuación, por medio de observaciones realizadas ...

Cirrus clouds cover a large fraction of tropical latitudes and play an important role in Earth's radiation budget. Their optical properties, altitude, vertical and horizontal coverage control their radiative forcing, and ...

Resumen: Las nubes cirrus han atraído recientemente mucha atención debido a su importante rol e impacto en el balance radiativo de la atmósfera. Esto resalta la necesidad de mejorar las mediciones de la atmósfera, a través ...

Abstract: Cirrus clouds in the upper troposphere and the lower stratosphere have recently drawn much attention due to their important role and impact on the atmospheric radiative balance. Because they are located in the ...
