Unveiling Cloud Microphysics of Marine Cold Air Outbreaks Through A-Train’s Active Instrumentation

Atmosphere
Marine Cold Air Outbreaks (MCAOs) are critical drivers of high-latitude climates because they regulate the exchange of heat, moisture, and momentum between cold continental or polar air masses and relatively warmer ocean surfaces.
