An Observational View of Relationships Between Moisture Aggregation, Cloud, and Radiative Heating Profiles

Data from several coincident satellite sensors are analyzed to determine the dependence of cloud and precipitation characteristics of tropical regions on the variance in the water vapor field. Increased vapor variance is associated with decreased high cloud fraction and an enhancement of low-level r...
