abstract = "Vertical profiles of cloud particle phase in tropical deep
convective clouds (DCCs) were investigated using airborne solar
spectral radiation data collected by the German High Altitude and
Long Range Research Aircraft (HALO) during the ACRIDICON-CHUVA
campaign, which was conducted over the Brazilian rainforest in
September 2014. A phase discrimination retrieval based on imaging
spectroradiometer measurements of DCC side spectral re- flectivity
was applied to clouds formed in different aerosol conditions. From
the retrieval results the height of the mixedphase layer of the
DCCs was determined. The retrieved pro- files were compared with
in situ measurements and satellite observations. It was found that
the depth and vertical position of the mixed-phase layer can vary
up to 900 m for one single cloud scene. This variability is
attributed to the different stages of cloud development in a
scene. Clouds of mature or decaying stage are affected by falling
ice particles resulting in lower levels of fully glaciated cloud
layers compared to growing clouds. Comparing polluted and moderate
aerosol conditions revealed a shift of the lower boundary of the
mixed-phase layer from 5.6 ± 0.2 km (269 K; moderate) to 6.2 ± 0.3
km (267 K; polluted), and of the upper boundary from 6.8 ± 0.2 km
(263 K; moderate) to 7.4 ± 0.4 km (259 K; polluted), as would be
expected from theory.",
