In this thesis we are interested in distinguishing patterns of mesoscale cloud patterns in the trades. Specifically, whether Sugar, Gravel, Fish and Flowers patterns can objectively be identified using physical quantities. For this purpose, we use cloud fraction data attained by the CORAL Ka-Band cloud radar at the Barbados Cloud Observatory during the boreal winter seasons of 2018, 2019 and 2020. These cloud fraction data represents the curves up until a height of 4 km for a given 6-hour interval of time. We do this to see if these clusters match up with the labels assigned to each cloud fraction curve obtained from a classification model used in Schulz (2021). Firstly, we map the cloud fraction curves onto points on a finite dimensional space using functional principal component analysis. We subsequently apply K-means, Gaussian Mixture Models and Mean Shift clustering onto the pre-processed dataset to identify any robust clusters. We have been able to attain robust Sugar-like clusters for K-means for 3 and 4 partitions and Mean Shift with bandwidth λ ≈ 585. This provides evidence that we are able to use cloud fraction data to distinguish Sugar. However, the same can not be said for Gravel, Fish and Flowers as we have not been able to identify them in our analysis. It is suggested for future research to do sensitivity analysis in the height interval of the cloud fraction data, that outliers are omitted and that the labeled data from Schulz (2021) are used instead of the mean and spread of the data pertaining to those labels.
