CloudSat-inferred vertical structure of precipitation over the Antarctic continent, supplement to: Lemonnier, Florentin; Madeleine, Jean-Baptiste; Claud, Chantal; Palerme, Cyril; Genthon, Christophe; L'Ecuyer, Tristan; Wood, Norman B (2020): CloudSat‐Inferred Vertical Structure of Snowfall Over the Antarctic Continent. Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 125(2), e2019JD031399
Current global warming is causing significant changes in snowfall in polar regions, directly impacting the mass balance of the ice caps. The only water supply in Antarctica, precipitation, is poorly estimated from surface measurements. The onboard cloud-profiling radar of the CloudSat satellite prov...
