Particle Size Distribution (PSD) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/545.004

Summary
This dataset contains Particle Size Distribution (PSD) data from the High Ice
Water Content (HIWC) Radar Study project that took place in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida. These data were analyzed by CNRS with the same processes used with
the SAFIRE Falcon 20 PSD data from the Darwin and Cayenne High Altitude Ice
Crystals - High Ice Water Content (HAIC-HIWC) projects. These data are being
used for the overall HAIC-HIWC cloud characterization. The data files are in
txt format.
