description abstractA ground-based combination microwave radiometer-satellite receiver operating at 28.5 GHz (wavelength = 1.05 cm) was employed to measure liquid water in clouds during the 1979-80 field season of the Sierra Cooperative Pilot Project (SCPP) in northern California. We report upon the ability of the instrument to detect small amounts (?0.1 g m?3) of liquid water in non-precipitating clouds which may not be observed by other remote sensing systems. A successful cloud seeding experiment, performed after cloud liquid was detected by the instrument, is described.
