- | * Period: 01.07.2009 - 31.10.2009 | ||
- | * Only those pixels displayed enter the frequency distributions, | ||
- | ===== Abbreviations ===== | ||
- | * ma : moving average (over the profiles; along CloudSat track), only applied on CloudSat data\\ | ||
- | * all : all 3 data sets detect the cloud, i.e., only overlapping cloud regions are included\\ | ||
- | * T : T < = -10degC\\ | ||
- | * C : CLC >= 50%\\ | ||
- | * H : HTOPCON = 0\\ | ||
- | * A : total column attenuation < = 3 dBZ\\ | ||

- | ===== Hydrometeor fraction ===== | ||
- | i.e., number of pixels where -27 dBZ < Z < +29 dBZ in percent | ||
