Liquid Phase Cloud Microphysical Property Estimates From CALIPSO Measurements

Liquid Phase Cloud Microphysical Property Estimates From CALIPSO Measurements

A neural-network algorithm that uses CALIPSO lidar measurements to infer droplet effective radius, extinction coefficient, liquid-water content, and droplet number concentration for water clouds is described and assessed. These results are verified against values inferred from High-Spectral-Resoluti...
