The Campaign
The Cirrus Regional Study of Tropical Anvils and Cirrus Layers Florida Area Cirrus Experiment (CRYSTAL-FACE) studied the physical properties and formation processes of tropical cirrus clouds. CRYSTAL-FACE had one deployment during July 2002 in southern Florida. Remote sensing and in situ instruments were deployed on various airborne platforms, balloons, and ground stations to measure cloud structure and radiative properties of cirrus anvils and aerosols. CRYSTAL-FACE was funded through NASA's Radiation Sciences Program.
