 +**Figure:** //Airborne remote sensing over the tropical Atlantic. Insights into vertical cloud structure and water content from active and passive microwave observations.// The colorful lines show all flight tracks where HAMP was used in the tropics. The dots below show an example model output of LWP that is used for retrieval development and assessment. The time series are an example of liquid (LWP) and rain water path (RWP) retrieval products and radar reflectivity profiles.
