About This Book
A stochastic simulation process, known as the 3D-Boehm Sawtooth Wave model has been developed. It has greater versatility than previously applied models. For a real cloud cover, the input consists of the mean sky-cover and a scale parameter, depicted as a characteristic wavelength. The algorithm has been written and programmed to map the simulated clouds horizontally, or in vertical cross-section. Since the model requires climatology in the vertical, a procedure has been developed which takes the cumulative sky-cover as seen by a surface observer and produces estimates of mean cloudiness within any specified layer. Keywords: Cloud cover; Sawtooth wave model; CFLOS (Cloud-free line of sight); New England.
