Future work  Radiative transfer model will be used to identify the spectral features of different types of clouds  Climate model must be capable of simulating the cloud variations, both spatially and temporally

Summary  Cloud distributions contributes most of the uncertainties in current climate modeling  IR spectra can be used to study empirically the cloud effect on climate change  The sequence of spatial and temporal averaging are important in isolating spectral features of different atmospheric species and clouds
