- W4321599967 abstract "A significant part of clouds in the tropics appears over the tropopause due to intense convections and in situ condensation activity. These tropical tropopause layer (TTL) clouds not only play an important role in the radiation budget over the tropics, but also in water vapor and other chemical material transport from the troposphere to the stratosphere. This study quantifies and analyzes the properties of TTL clouds based on spaceborne active observations, which provide one of the most reliable sources of information on cloud vertical distributions. We use four years (2007–2010) of observations from the joint Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) and CloudSat and consider all cloudy pixels with top height above the tropopause as TTL clouds. The occurrence frequency of TTL clouds during the nighttime is found to be almost 13% and can reach ~50–60% in areas with frequent convections. The annual averages of tropical tropopause height, tropopause temperature, and cloud top height are 16.2 km, −80.7 °C, and 16.6 km, respectively, and the average cloud top exceeds tropopause by approximately 500 m. More importantly, the presence of TTL clouds causes tropopause temperature to be ~3–4 °C colder than in the all-sky condition. It also lifts the tropopause heights ~160 m during the nighttime and lowers the heights ~84 m during the daytime. From a cloud type aspect, ~91% and ~4% of the TTL clouds are high clouds and altostratus, and only ~5% of them are associated with convections (i.e., nimbostratus and deep convective clouds). Approximately 30% of the TTL clouds are single-layer clouds, and multi-layer clouds are dominated by those with 2–3 separated layers." @default.
