Abstract

Provides information on a study of what controls stratocumulus radiative properties. Detailed information on the two groups hypotheses regarding the control of cloud radiative properties fall into; Information on the observation of boundary layer cloud evolution in a moving or Lagrangian frame of reference; Suggestions from the authors; Conclusions reached.
