Fog and low-level stratus characteristics at the airport of Odesa from surface observations [PDF]
Вісник Харківського національного університету імені В.Н. Каразіна. Серія Геологія. Географія. Екологія, 2023 Introduction. Fog that limits visibility and low-level stratus represent a significant hazard to aviation especially during takeoff and landing, and also low-level flying of aircrafts, because accidents often occur in reduced visibility conditions and ...

1 km fog and low stratus detection using pan-sharpened MSG SEVIRI data [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2012 In this paper a new technique for the detection of fog and low stratus in 1 km resolution from MSG SEVIRI data is presented. The method relies on the pan-sharpening of 3 km narrow-band channels using the 1 km high-resolution visible (HRV) channel.

Remote Sensing, 2021 The detection of low stratus and fog (LSF) at dawn remains limited because of their optical features and weak solar radiation. LSF could be better identified by simultaneous observations of two geostationary satellites from different viewing angles.

Quantifying Parametric Uncertainty Effects on Tropical Cloud Fraction in an AGCM
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023 The underestimation of cloud fraction, especially the low stratus cloud (LSC) fraction over the eastern oceans, remains a problem in most atmospheric global climate models.

What controls the formation of nocturnal low-level stratus clouds over southern West Africa during the monsoon season? [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019 Nocturnal low-level stratus clouds (LLCs) are frequently observed in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over southern West Africa (SWA) during the summer monsoon season.
