Statistics of Cloud Height over the Tibetan Plateau and Its Surrounding Region Derived from the CloudSat Data
利用CloudSat资料分析青藏高原、 高原南坡及南亚季风区云高度的统计特征量

Cloud-radiation interaction has a large impact on the Earth's weather and climate change,and clouds with different heights cause different radiative forcings. Thus,the information on the statistics of cloud height and its variation in space and time is very important to study the global climate change. In this paper,cloud top height(CTH),cloud base height(CBH) and cloud thickness in the regions of Tibetan Plateau,Plateau south slope and South Asian Monsoon are analyzed based on the CloudSat data during the ...
