Satellite observations of cloud systems over the Caribbean Sea

Tropical cloud systems when viewed from satellites often display marked organization. This organization may be associated with low level wind systems, or with high level wind systems, or with both. When the organization is in a cirriform cloud, it is evident that some organization exists at upper le...

Cuando Ia organización se manifiesta como una nube cirriforme es evidente que existe cierta organización en niveles superiores. Por ejemplo, configuraciones divergentes de nubes cirrus que se asocian con masas de nubes muy brillantes sugieren una divergencia más arriba. La presencia de nubes de alto nivel puede inferirse de fotografías o medidas de radiación.Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.

When the organization is in a cirriform cloud, it is evident that some organization exists at upper levels.
