Contraction of the World's Storm-Cloud Zones the Primary Contributor to the 21st Century Increase in the Earth's Sunlight Absorption
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
Satellite data reveals that the Earth's storm cloud zones have been shrinking over the past 24 years, and this contraction is the main driver of the observed increase in sunlight absorption by the Earth. This decrease in cloud cover allows more solar radiation to reach the Earth's surface, which in turn influences the Earth's energy balance.

Imagine storm clouds as giant sun umbrellas. If those umbrellas get smaller, more sunlight reaches the ground, making the Earth warmer. That’s what's happening with our planet's storm clouds.
