==== Stratocumulus fields ==== Stratocumulus clouds can be organized into "fields" that take on certain specially classified shapes and characteristics. In general, these fields are more discernible from high altitudes than from ground level. They can often be found in the following forms: * [[Actinoform cloud|Actinoform]], which resembles a leaf or a spoked wheel. * Closed cell, which is cloudy in the center and clear on the edges, similar to a filled [[honeycomb]].<ref name="marine clouds">{{Cite journal |last1=Kore.n |first1=I. |last2=Feingold |first2=G. |year=2013 |title=Adaptive behavior of marine cellular clouds |journal=Scientific Reports |volume=3 |pages=2507 |bibcode=2013NatSR...3.2507K |doi=10.1038/srep02507 |pmc=3753593 |pmid=23978979}}</ref> * Open cell, which resembles an empty honeycomb, with clouds around the edges and clear, open space in the middle.<ref>{{Cite web |date=5 October 2005 |title=Cloud Formations off the West Coast of South America |url=http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=5904 |access-date=29 March 2013 |publisher=[[NASA Earth Observatory]]}}</ref>
