Destabilization of clouds due to long-wave radiation is computed as the difference in the radiative cooling rates across the cloud layer. The changes in destabilization and cooling rates due to changes in cloud amount, cloud altitude, cloud thickness, and temperature structure of the lower layer have been assessed separately.
