Pileus Formation Seen from the NASA WB-57F

Pileus formation taken by Brian Barnett aboard the NASA WB-57F. Pileus formation near the tropopause. UU research shows that pileus spread over tropical cirrus anvils to form cold clouds that can contribute to the greenhouse effect (photo: Brian Barnett, NASA).
