In Situ Microphysical Observations of the 29–30 May 2012 Kingfisher, OK, Supercell With a Balloon‐Borne Video Disdrometer

Abstract: The microphysical characteristics of deep convective storms are a critically important, yet difficult aspect of storm morphology to observe in situ. These observations play a large role in several areas of ongoing research, but detailed observations in key portions of clouds do not exist with the currently available measurement platforms. To facilitate these observations, a balloon‐borne particle imaging device known as the PArticle Size, Image, and Velocity (PASIV) probe was developed at the National Severe S… Show more

“…Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres 2.7. Cloud Structure Analyses of cloud physical properties were conducted using aircraft measurements of cloud particle size distributions (Stith et al, 2016) and water vapor (Diao et al, 2017), as well as balloon-borne video disdrometer (Waugh et al, 2018). The recently developed balloon-borne microphysics probe can provide observations at fine scales and give calculated cloud particle mixing ratios and reflectivity in agreement with radar and cloud-resolving, kinematic model results.…”
