Abstract
A comparison study of cloud radar data and air borne in situ observations, using data of the 2001 BBC campaign in Cabauw, the Netherlands, showed that a cloud radar could receive substantially less power than expected. This particular case was the starting point for an in depth study of how often this effect occurred and how strong it could be. In this paper we will show the results of this study, based on long term observations at Cabauw, The Netherlands and data from the mobile ARM facility, collected during its deployment in the Black Forest in 2007.
