Cloud radiative effect, cloud fraction and cloud type at two stations in Switzerland using hemispherical sky cameras

The current study analyses the cloud radiative effect during the daytime depending on cloud fraction and cloud type at two stations in Switzerland over a time period of 3 to 5 years. Information on fractional cloud coverage and cloud type is retrieved from images taken by visible all-sky cameras...
