#05 Topic: Liquid-or ice, that is the question: Thermodynamic-phase determination of clouds
Lecturer: Heike Kalesse-Los
Date: Monday, December 2, 2024 10:00 – 11:00 a.m.

Mixed-phase clouds are fascinating but complicated systems. Synergistic lidar-radar observations form the basis for the development of thermodynamic-phase classifiers. In this lecture we will learn about different state-of-the-art retrievals for liquid detection in mixed-phase clouds with a focus on those employing cloud radar Doppler spectra.
