Abstract
- Examines the accuracy of values of ice water content (IWC) in ice clouds based on the measurements of radar reflectivity (Z). Relationship between IWC and Z based on aircraft measurement of ice particle spectra; Effect of ice density on IWC inferred from Z; Impact of spatial integration on retrieved IWC.
