| description abstract | A review of existing literature is made to determine typical values for the physical properties cirrus clouds. The properties examined (with typical values and measured ranges) are cloud-center altitude (9 km, 4 to 20 km), cloud thickness (1.5 km, 0.1 to 8 km), crystal number density (30 L?1, 10?4 to 10?4 L?1), condensed water content (0.025 g m ?3, 10?4 to 1.2 g m ?3), and crystal size (250 ?m, 1 to 8000 ?m). A typical crystal size distribution is also reported. | |
