Climate sensitivity & cloud feedbacks
Ubiquitous on Earth.
Their altitude, thickness, and spatial coverage change with global warming.
And thus, the balance between the shading effect and the greenhouse effect changes accordingly.
In the field of research,
they remain a great enigma.
The challenge is to determine the role of cloud changes in the amplitude of global warming.
In other words, which of the two effects will prevail?
