During the Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study (COPS), lidar dark/ bright and bands were observed by the Univ. of BASILicata Raman lidar system (BASIL) on several IOPs and SOPs (among others, 23 July, 15 August, 17 August).

Lidar data are supported by measurements from the University of Hamburg cloud radar MIRA 36 (36 GHz), the University of Hamburg dual-polarization micro rain radars (24.1 GHz) and the University of Manchester Radio UHF clear air wind profiler (1.29 GHz). Results from BASIL and the radars will be illustrated and discussed at the Conference to support in the comprehension of the microphysical and scattering processes responsible for the appearance of the lidar dark band and radar bright band.

Abstract

During the Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study (COPS), lidar dark/ bright and bands were observed by the Univ. of BASILicata Raman lidar system (BASIL) on several IOPs and SOPs (among others, 23 July, 15 August, 17 August). Dark/bright band signatures appear in the lidar measurements of the particle backscattering. Lidar data are supported by measurements from the University of Hamburg cloud radar MIRA 36 (36 GHz), the University of Hamburg dual-polarization micro rain radars (24.1 GHz) and the University of Manchester Radio UHF clear air wind profiler (1.29 GHz). Results from BASIL and the radars will be illustrated and discussed at the Conference to support in the comprehension of the microphysical and scattering processes responsible for the appearance of the lidar dark band and radar bright band.
