EXCERPT: As our planet continues to warm, rainfall in tropical regions will increase. Global climate models may underestimate the amount of rainfall in these regions. They underestimate observations of decreases in high clouds over the tropics. These tropical clouds trap heat in the atmosphere, but fewer of these clouds would lead to the atmosphere cooling - condensing the water vapor into rain...
