Remote sensing of cloud sides of deep convection: towards a three-dimensional retrieval of cloud particle size profiles

The cloud scanner sensor is a central part of a recently proposed satellite remote sensing concept – the three-dimensional (3-D) cloud and aerosol interaction mission (CLAIM-3D) combining measurements of aerosol characteristics in the vicinity of clouds and profiles of cloud microphysical characteri...
