Detection of Cirrus Clouds Using Infrared Radiometry
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2011The detection of low-level clouds from ground-based infrared (IR) radiometry is usually based on the IR brightness temperature (IRBT) contrast between the warm clouds and the cold clear-sky background. This method works as long as the brightness temperature contrast subsists.

Abstract Cirrus clouds may act to cool or warm the earth's surface, depending upon their infrared emissivity. Direct observation of cirrus cloud emissivities in mid-latitude and tropical environments indicates that cirrus may produce different effects at different latitudes.

Light and Color in the Open Air, 1997
On 20 January 1995, an apparent cirrus cloud glory was photographed over central Utah from an airline passing through the 10.7 km MSL level as it began its descent into Salt Lake City International Airport. The cirrus cloud layer was geographically widespread and optically thin enough to view the snow-covered Wasatch Mountain Plateau beneath the cloud.

Cirrus: A Disruption-Tolerant Cloud
2012Cloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, conve- nient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable com- puting resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, virtual machines, appli- cations, and services) that can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, to quickly scale out, and rapidly released to quickly scale in. However, com-

CIRRUS: Distributed Cloud Storage
2018 Seventh ICT International Student Project Conference (ICT-ISPC), 2018Disk storage space is necessary for everyone who uses computer. The demand for the storage space of each individual can vary across different type of usage over time. Typically, a non-technical person will need smaller amount of storage space than a computer technician.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1952
AbstractObservations are described from which it is inferred that the air flowing over small hills (1,000 ft high) may even in the cirrus levels suffer vertical displacements of 2,000 ft or more, which cause the formation of clouds able to travel away from the hills, and may be responsible for a diurnal variation in cirrus frequency.

The Analysis of Lidar Signatures of Cirrus Clouds
Applied Optics, 1969The terminology of light scattering pertinent to a simple form of the lidar equation and the approximate analytical solution of the lidar equation are reviewed without specific restriction on the nature of the cloud scatterers. A boundary value of the volume backscattering coefficient and the relationship between extinction and backscattering are ...

Observations of turbulence in cirrus clouds
Atmospheric Research, 1996Abstract Three daytime flights of the UK Meteorological Office's C-130 aircraft through thick frontal cirrus have been analysed with the aim of determining the length scales at which energy is produced, and which mechanisms are responsible. The data was obtained as part of the EUCREX campaign.
