My tasks on MOSAiC
Arctic clouds mostly consist of both, ice crystals and liquid droplets. Despite the very cold temperatures in the Arctic, those liquid droplets are rather persistent and form a liquid layer at cloud top. Changes in this layer may introduce further changes in radiative forcing and precipitation. Using several remote sensing instruments I measure the clouds below the POLAR 5 aircraft and look into changes of cloud profiles and properties under different sea ice conditions, different weather conditions and during different seasons.
