Demonstration of a Nowcasting Service for High Ice Water Content (HIWC) Conditions

Demonstration of a Nowcasting Service for High Ice Water Content (HIWC) Conditions

Areas of high ice water content (HIWC) within cloud systems may cause power loss events and engine damage in jet aircraft due to ice crystal icing (ICI). The Algorithm for Prediction of HIWC Areas (ALPHA) was developed to identify these regions and enable provision of guidance to airlines. ALPHA com...
