The measurements are evaluated in light of understanding of how lower-tropospheric water vapor influences clouds, convection and circulation, through both radiative and thermodynamic effects. Lower-tropospheric water vapor, which concentrates in the first few kilometers above the boundary layer, controls the radiative cooling profile of the boundary layer and lower troposphere. Elevated moist layers originating from a preferred level of convective detrainment induce a profile of radiative cooling that drives circulations which reinforce such features. A theory for this preferred level of cumulus termination is advanced, whereby the difference between (Formula presented.) and the temperature at which primary ice forms gives a ‘first-mover advantage’ to glaciating cumulus convection, thereby concentrating the regions of the deepest convection and leading to more clouds and moisture near the triple point. A preferred level of convective detrainment near (Formula presented.) implies relative humidity reversals below (Formula presented.) which are difficult to identify using retrievals from satellite-borne microwave and infrared sounders. Isotopologues retrievals provide a hint of such features and their ability to constrain the structure of the vertical humidity profile merits further study. Nonetheless, it will likely remain challenging to resolve dynamically important aspects of the vertical structure of water vapor from space using only passive sensors. © 2017 The Author(s)<br /> <br /> Document type: Part of book or chapter of book<br /> <br /> == Full document ==<br /> &lt;pdf&gt;Media:Draft_Content_800095418-beopen67-9482-document.pdf&lt;/pdf&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> == Original document ==<br /> <br /> The different versions of the original document can be found in:<br /> <br /> * [http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-77273-8_10 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-77273-8_10]<br /> <br /> * [https://hal-insu.archives-ouvertes.fr/insu-01569028/file/10.1007-s10712-017-9420-8.pdf https://hal-insu.archives-ouvertes.fr/insu-01569028/file/10.1007-s10712-017-9420-8.pdf]<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> DOIS: 10.1007/s10712-017-9420-8 10.1007/978-3-319-77273-8_10</div>
