Onboard Instrumentation
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.
Onboard Instrumentation
Detects and measures the size of the smallest cloud droplets using forward-scattered laser light. Provides real-time droplet size distributions and concentrations.
Onboard Instrumentation
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.
