Quantification of Global Cloud Properties With Use of Spherical Harmonic Functions

Abstract Spherical harmonic (SH) expansion is a useful tool to study any variable that has valid values at all latitudes and longitudes. The variable can be quantified as a sum of different spherical harmonic components, which are the spherical harmonic functions multiplied by their expansion coeffi...
