Characterization of supercooled liquid water in cirrus clouds from FIRE ETO lidar observationsThe various modes of occurrence of supercooled liquid water in cirrus clouds are discussed using the data from the FIRE extended time observations (ETO). Results from lidar observations show that cirrus cloud scenes viewed from satellites may contain mixtures of 'high' and 'middle' cloud varieties, which affect the assessment of the derived cirrus cloud properties.
