Factors influencing ice formation and growth in simulations of a mixed-phase wave cloud

Factors influencing ice formation and growth in simulations of a mixed-phase wave cloud

In this paper, numerical simulations of an orographically induced wave cloud sampled in-situ during the ICE-L (Ice in Clouds Experiment - Layer clouds) field campaign are performed and compared directly against the available observations along various straight and level flight paths. The simulations...
