Exploring the relationship between the cloud-top and tropopause height in boreal summer over the Tibetan Plateau and its adjacent region

The distribution characteristics of cloud-top and tropopause height in the tropics and subtropics in boreal summer are analyzed based on CALIPSO data for the period 2008–2012. The maximum values of cloud-top vertical cumulative frequency above the tropopause (CTAT) are concentrated in three tropical...
