A review of the light scattering properties of cirrus (2009, background): “The shape of the PSD is generally bi-modal and is universally described by exponential functions [24,26–29].”
Microphysical characterization of mixed‐phase clouds (2003, background): “(d ) Relation between mixed-phase composition and cloud-particle concentration Recent studies have implied that FSSP measurements can be used for estimation of cloud particle number-concentration in mixed and ice clouds (Gayet et al. 1996; Arnott et al. 2000; Ivanova et al. 2001).”
