In summer, areas of maximum
cloud cover are located over southwest China, the Indian Peninsula, the Indochina Peninsula, the Bay of Bengal, and the South China Sea, accounting for 20%-25% of the total annual
cloud cover.
Impacts of
Cloud Cover on the Photovoltaic Power Output.
"The
cloud cover isn't actually as bad as they thought it was going to be.
The towers were searched for carcasses on mornings following nights with four weather conditions: 1) [greater than or equal to] 50%
cloud cover and northerly winds, 2) [greater than or equal to] 50%
cloud cover and non-northerly winds, 3) <50%
cloud cover and northerly winds, and 4) <50%
cloud cover and non-northerly winds.
Later that same night, Peter Mugridge from Epsom, Surrey observed 11 Geminids between 00:05 and 01:05, again through gaps in the
cloud cover. Although well after the peak, UK observations indicate that the Geminid ZHR was still in excess of 150 m/h at 21h on Dec 14, but declined steadily during the night to around 100 m/h by dawn.
Efforts made in reducing the effects of
cloud cover on satellite data use compositing of selected cloud-free images in collocated pixels that are geometrically registered with the maximum Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), or by compositing temporally overlapping satellites images of different overpass dates (Cihlar et al.
Sumatra and Kalimantan feature poor observational coverage compared to other centers of humid tropical forest change, such as Mato Grosso, Brazil, due to the lack of ongoing acquisitions from nearby ground stations and the persistence of
cloud cover obscuring the land surface.
Under the gray

Within the report, the NSIDC cited "weather conditions, atmospheric patterns, and
cloud cover" as playing lead roles in the melting ice.
