A TWP-ICE High-Level Cloud Case Study

The Tropical Warm Pool International Cloud Experiment (TWP ICE) was conducted near Darwin, Australia during January and February, 2006. One of the primary goals of this experiment is to develop an integrated meteorological and high-level cloud data set that will increase our understanding of the processes that result in the formation and maintenance of tropical anvils and extended cirrus layers. In this poster we present a preliminary look at a TWP ICE case study. We combine in situ data collected by the Proteus with remote sensing data collected by airborne and surface-based sensors to document cloud structure and internal microphysical and dynamical properties.
This poster will be displayed at the ARM Science Team Meeting.
