The vertical structure of cloud radiative heating over the Indian subcontinent during summer monsoon

Clouds forming during the summer monsoon over the Indian subcontinent affect its evolution through their radiative impact as well as the release of latent heat. While the latter is previously studied to some extent, comparatively little is known about the radiative impact of different cloud types an...
