CIRAMOSA (CIrrus microphysical properties and their effect on RAdiation: survey and integration into climate MOdels using combined SAtellite observations)
- a long-term survey of cirrus micro- and macrophysical properties from
both remote sensing and in-situ measurements
- correlations between cirrus properties and the state of the atmosphere
- a study of their effect on the reflection and absorption of solar and
thermal radiation
