Abstract
Cirrus clouds are global in nature and occupy primarily the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. Information on cirrus cloud parameters is critically important to the development of cirrus cloud forecast models, the upgrading of real-time global cloud analysis, and the investigation of cloud-radiation feedback to the temperature perturbations in global climate change.
