Shipborne and ground-based observations of clouds in the Southern Ocean ...
The Southern Ocean is characterised by sparse ground-based and in-situ atmospheric measurements. While satellite measurements provide continuous spatial and temporal coverage, they are generally not capable of observing low-level clouds and the cloud base, which are critical for accurately modelling...
