Parametrization of ice‐particle size distributions for mid‐latitude stratiform cloud (2005, background): “…requires assumptions based on ice-crystal concentration measurements provided by the PMS Forward Scattering Spectrometer Probe, which almost certainly suffers from the effects of ice-particle shattering on the probe housing that can lead to artificially enhanced concentrations (Field et al. 2003).”
