RISRefinements to Ice Particle Mass Dimensional and Terminal Velocity Relationships for Ice Clouds. Part II: Evaluation and Parameterizations of Ensemble Ice Particle Sedimentation Velocities
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This two-part study addresses the development of reliable estimates of the mass and fall speed of single ice particles and ensembles. Part I of the study reports temperature-dependent coefficients for the mass-dimensional ...

Effective Radius of Ice Cloud Particle Populations Derived from Aircraft Probes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effective radius (re) is a crucial variable in representing the radiative properties of cloud layers in general circulation models. This parameter is proportional to the condensed water content (CWC) divided by the ...
Testing IWC Retrieval Methods Using Radar and Ancillary Measurements with In Situ Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical profiles of ice water content (IWC) can now be derived globally from spaceborne cloud satellite radar (CloudSat) data. Integrating these data with Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation ...
