Airborne probes and spectrometers that resolve cloud and aerosol microphysics in flight: particle imaging, droplet sizing, water content, and the atmospheric context needed to interpret them.
A high-resolution optical array probe that captures shadow images of cloud and precipitation particles (10 to 1,280 µm). Critical for distinguishing between liquid droplets and ice crystals.
Detects and measures the size of the smallest cloud droplets using forward-scattered laser light. Provides real-time droplet size distributions and concentrations.
Combines high-resolution photography (~2.3 µm) with optical array measurements to provide detailed views of ice crystals and rain, validating satellite and radar observations.
Measures large particles like raindrops, snowflakes, and hail from 50 to 19,200 µm. Essential for analyzing storm microphysics and improving radar precipitation accuracy.
A radar system that remotely senses the vertical structure of clouds and precipitation. Analyzes reflectivity and Doppler velocity to identify cloud layers and particle motion.
Measures bulk liquid, total, and ice water content using heated elements. Provides essential data for evaluating cloud growth potential and guiding seeding decisions.
Determines which aerosol particles activate into cloud droplets under controlled supersaturation. Key to understanding how aerosols like dust influence cloud development.
Measures extremely small, fine-mode aerosol particles (1–50 µm) by their electrical mobility. These particles are the initial building blocks for cloud droplets.
Uses laser scattering to measure larger aerosol particles like desert dust and sea salt (0.1 to 3 µm). These often function as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).
An integrated system that measures 3D wind, temperature, pressure, and humidity. Provides essential atmospheric context for interpreting particle data.
A shielded sensor providing high-accuracy measurements of outside air temperature. Essential for determining cloud phase and identifying conditions for ice formation.
A chilled-mirror optical system that precisely measures dew and frost points. Critical for identifying conditions favorable for cloud formation and ice formation thresholds.
A lightweight optical particle counter designed for mobile platforms like UAVs and tethered balloons. Measures aerosol particle number and size distribution.
