Cloud Emissivity

Cloud Emissivity is a radiative property that quantifies the efficiency with which a cloud emits thermal infrared radiation relative to a blackbody at the same temperature, distinguishing it from other cloud optical properties by its direct role in determining the longwave radiative impact of clouds.
