Cloud radar with hybrid mode towards estimation of shape and orientation of ice crystals

This paper is devoted to the experimental quantitative characterization of the shape and orientation distribution of ice particles in clouds. The characterization is based on measured and modeled elevation dependencies of the polarimetric parameters differential reflectivity and correlation coeffici...
