About the Cover


Satellite images showing an extensive stratocumulus cloud system off the coast of California. The false color image is constructed from visible (0.63 {mu}m) and near infrared (0.89 {mu}m) radiances. The inset is constructed from 3.7 {mu}m radiances. The streaks revealed at 3.7 {mu}m are caused by a decrease in cloud droplet size for clouds that are contaminated by the exhausts of ships. See page 1020. [Images constructed by J. A. Coakley, Jr., and R. A. Bumpas; cover design by M. Shibao, National Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, CO 80307]
