Time-mean total cloud cover. The panels show the Baseline (left), Steep Uplift (center), and Plateau (right) cases. The Baseline case exhibits the conventional tidally locked cloud distribution, with enhanced cloudiness on the dayside and reduced cloudiness on the nightside. Orography enhances ascent and cloudiness. The Steep case produces the highest cloud cover at the nightside compared to the other two cases. The Plateau case yields intermediate nightside cloud cover, with cloudiness distributed along the day-night terminators.
