Abstract: Cloud microphysical measurements of two ground-based field campaigns are analyzed in order to compare Particle Volume Monitor (PVM) measurements and Forward Scattering Spectrometer Probe (FSSP)-derived integrated quantities ...

Abstract: A droplet generator was used to calibrate and study some features of the forward-scattering spectrometer probe (FSSP). The generator produces a stable jet of monodisperse droplets with the rate of 50?500 droplets per second ...

Abstract: The Gerber Scientific, Inc. Particle Volume Monitor (PVM) is widely used to measure the liquid water content (LWC) and droplet effective radius (reff) of water clouds. The LWC response of the airborne version of this ...

Abstract: A counterflow virtual impactor (CVI) designed for aircraft use was evaluated at the NASA Icing Research Tunnel in Cleveland, Ohio. Tests were conducted for tunnel speeds of 67 and 100 m s?1, for liquid water contents of ...

Abstract: The results of an airborne experiment performed near Mönchengladbach (Germany) in November 1993 are reported. Besides meteorological data, vertical profiles of aerosol properties (number concentration, size distribution) ...

Abstract: elicopter-borne observations of the impact of turbulent mixing and cloud microphysical properties in shallow trade wind cumuli are presented. The measurements were collected during the Cloud, Aerosol, Radiation and Turbulence ...

Abstract: tate-of-the-art remote-sensing techniques applicable to the investigation of ice formation and evolution are described. Ground-based and spaceborne measurements with lidar, radar and radiometric techniques are discussed ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new device is introduced to study the formation and growth of cloud droplets under near-atmospheric supersaturations. The new device, called the Leipzig Aerosol Cloud Interaction Simulator (LACIS), is based ...

Abstract: AbstractMixed-phase clouds represent a three-phase colloidal system consisting of water vapor, ice particles, and coexisting supercooled liquid droplets. Mixed-phase clouds are ubiquitous in the troposphere, occurring at ...
