In situ characterization of mixed phase clouds using the Small Ice Detector and the Particle Phase Discriminator
Mixed phase clouds (MPCs) represent a great source of uncertainty for both climate predictions and weather forecasts. In particular, there is still a lack of understanding on how ice forms in these clouds. In this work we present a technique to analyze in situ measurements of MPCs performed with the...
