Abstract:

A means for graphically displaying cloud liquid water content data is described in terms of both theory and C language code. Given the appropriate parametric equations and graphics display enhancement techniques dithering and jittering, the graphic display can be fairly easily achieved when built around a library of graphic routines such as Sun Computers XView.
