The ice
water path retrievals are smaller in magnitude than the radar estimates, and this difference grows with increasing cirrus thickness.

«Comparisons of Ice
Water Path in Deep Convective Systems Among Ground - Based, GOES, and CERES - MODIS
Retrievals.»
MM5 is capable of producing ice
water path magnitudes similar to the radar estimates, but the GOES
retrievals are much more limited.
Based on this study, we conclude that GOES level - 2B cloud - top
retrievals are a reliable tool for prediction evaluations but the algorithm's
retrievals of ice
water path are not.
Integrated
water vapor and liquid
water path are derived from radiance measurements with a statistical
retrieval algorithm that uses monthly derived and location - dependent linear regression coefficients.
