Abstract:Abstract. To generate reliable climate predictions, global models need accurate estimates of all the energy fluxes contributing to the Earth Radiation Budget (ERB). Clouds in general, and more specifically ice clouds play a key role in the determination of the ERB, as they may exert either a feedback or a forcing action, depending on their optical and microphysical properties and physical state (solid/liquid). To date, accurate statistics and climatologies of cloud parameters are not available. The ice cloud c… Show more
