Towards the connection between snow microphysics and melting layer: insights from multifrequency and dual-polarization radar observations during BAECC

<p>In stratiform rainfall, the melting layer (ML) is often visible in radar observations as an enhanced reflectivity band, the so-called bright band. Despite the ongoing debate on the exact microphysical processes taking place in the ML and on how they translate into radar measurements, both m...
