Description
The divergence of net radiation in a tropical atmosphere with cirrus clouds has been examined in terms of two bulk radiative properties of the cloud: shortwave thickness and broad-band infrared emissivity.

Description
In this study, differences between narrowband near infrared (NIR) and infrared (IR) brightness temperatures are related to cloud optical depth providing a theoretical basis for determining cirrus optical properties from combined satellite images.

Description
A simple formalism for the diagnostic use of the feedback and static control portions of the theory is presented. The relation of the subgrid scale flux forms and the detrainment forms of the large-scale heat and moisture budgets is also discussed.

Description
Evidence has accumulated over the last twenty years that in some clouds the concentration of ice crystals may be a factor of four or five orders of magnitude greater than the concentration of observed ice nuclei apparently available to the cloud.

Description
The results indicate that the presence of extensive low-level decoupled flow does indeed cause part of the orographic lift of the mountain barrier to be experienced upstream of the barrier. This changes the location of condensate production which in turn shifts precipitation upstream.
