Spaceborne radars offer a unique three‐dimensional view of the atmospheric components
of the Earth's hydrological cycle. Existing and planned spaceborne radar missions provide …

The Mediterranean region is a unique area characterized by a large spectrum of
atmospheric phenomena, some of which have a high impact on many aspects of human …

The Cloudnet project aims to provide a systematic evaluation of clouds in forecast and
climate models by comparing the model output with continuous ground-based observations …

Large‐eddy simulations (LES) with the new ICOsahedral Non‐hydrostatic atmosphere
model (ICON) covering Germany are evaluated for four days in spring 2013 using …

In this paper, data from spaceborne radar, lidar and infrared radiometers on the “A‐Train” of
satellites are combined in a variational algorithm to retrieve ice cloud properties. The …

A new remote sensing retrieval of ice cloud microphysics has been developed for use with
millimeter‐wave radar from ground‐, air‐, or space‐based sensors. Developed from an …

A variational method is described for retrieving profiles of visible extinction coefficient, ice
water content and effective radius in ice clouds using the combination of ground‐based or …

During the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program's Mixed‐
Phase Arctic Cloud Experiment (M‐PACE) in fall 2004, the University of North Dakota …

Although it is well established that cirrus warms Earth, the radiative effect of the entire
spectrum of ice clouds is not well understood. In this study, the role of all ice clouds in Earth's …

A 35-GHz radar has been operating at the Meteorological Observatory Lindenberg
(Germany) since 2004, measuring cloud parameters continuously. The radar is equipped …
