Abstract: | The morphology of fair weather Cumulus cloud field over several ocean areas distributed globally has been studied using LANDSAT data. Distribution functions of cloud size, spacing, perimeter and other relevant parameters have been derived, as well as their correlations and moments.Examples of distribution functions of cloud size, cloud spacing and fractal dimension of the cloud fields over oceanic areas are given and applied to several problem in Cu convection. |
