Current Topics

We work on extending our network approach to cloud organization from stratocumulus and detailed cloud simulations to other cloud types and satellite images. The figure below illustrates cellular networks derived from satellite images of stratocumulus and shallow cumulus clouds over the subtropical Pacific on Sep 8, 2017. The figure is based on experimental products from the RAMMB/CIRA SLIDER.
