Characteristic features of clouds in Antarctica as observed at Syowa Station
The relationship between atmospheric conditions and cloud types in Antarctica was investigated on the basis of aerological data at Syowa Station in 1979 and 1980. When a low pressure passed near Syowa Station, type I clouds in which the vertical profile of temperature was nearly moist adiabatic were...
