Characteristics and Seasonal Variations of Cirrus Clouds from Polarization Lidar Observations at a 30°N Plain Site

Characteristics and Seasonal Variations of Cirrus Clouds from Polarization Lidar Observations at a 30°N Plain Site

Geometrical and optical characteristics of cirrus clouds were studied based on one year of polarization lidar measurements (3969 h on 228 different days between March 2019 and February 2020) at Wuhan (30.5°N, 114.4°E), China. The cirrus clouds showed an overall occurrence frequency of ~48% and occur...
