Lagrangian matches between observations from aircraft, lidar and radar in a warm conveyor belt crossing orography
<p>Warm conveyor belts (WCBs) are important airstreams in extratropical cyclones, often leading to the formation of intense precipitation and the amplification of upper-level ridges. This study presents a case study that involves aircraft, lidar and radar observations in a WCB ascending from w...
