Description
Summary:I agree with Dr. Pfister that idealized simulations are valuable, because of their potential to study the interplay between and the relative importance of many physical cloud processes. Here follows a point-by-point reply to his constructive suggestions. 1. Describing the cloud observations I agree that this paper should stand on its own. I will therefore provide a brief overview of the meteorological situation and the initialization of ambient profiles in Section 3.1. 2. Comparing simulation results with the lidar observations Lin et al. (2005) provide a model-based analysis of the lidar observations detailed in Reichart et al. (2002). As I have stated on p.1841, lines 7+8, the foci of the Lin et
