“…The development of UTH datasets and the examination of temporal and spatial variabilities of UTH have been presented in numerous studies, including both infrared datasets (Soden and Bretherton, 1993;Jackson and Bates, 2001;Shi and Bates, 2011;Iacono et al, 2003;Chung et al, 2007;Gierens et al, 2014;Schröder et al, 2014) and microwave datasets (Brogniez and Pierrehumbert, 2006;Chung et al, 2013;Sohn et al, 2000;Buehler et al, 2008;Lang et al, 2020;Brogniez et al, 2015;Moradi et al, 2016). The variability of UTH is regulated by the large-scale atmospheric circulation.…”
