Abstract

We present observations and analyses for several cases with contrasting hydrometeor forms, recorded by several ground instruments at the MASCRAD (MASC + Radar) snow field site, radiosondes, and polarimetric radars. The instrumentation includes the multi-angle snowflake camera (MASC) and 2D-video disdrometer. The study focuses on microphysical characteristics analysis and is aimed at improving the radar-based winterprecipitation estimation.
