abstract = {The Midlatitude Cirrus experiment (ML-CIRRUS) deployed the
High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft (HALO) to
obtain new insights into nucleation, life cycle, and climate
impact of natural cirrus and aircraft-induced contrail
cirrus. Direct observations of cirrus properties and their
variability are still incomplete, currently limiting our
understanding of the clouds’ impact on climate. Also,
dynamical effects on clouds and feedbacks are not adequately
represented in today’s weather prediction models.Here, we
present the rationale, objectives, and selected scientific
highlights of ML-CIRRUS using the G-550 aircraft of the
German atmospheric science community. The first combined in
situ–remote sensing cloud mission with HALO united
state-of-the-art cloud probes, a lidar and novel ice
residual, aerosol, trace gas, and radiation instrumentation.
The aircraft observations were accompanied by remote sensing
from satellite and ground and by numerical simulations.In
spring 2014, HALO performed 16 flights above Europe with a
focus on anthropogenic contrail cirrus and midlatitude
cirrus induced by frontal systems including warm conveyor
belts and other dynamical regimes (jet streams, mountain
waves, and convection). Highlights from ML-CIRRUS include 1)
new observations of microphysical and radiative cirrus
properties and their variability in meteorological regimes
typical for midlatitudes, 2) insights into occurrence of in
situ–formed and lifted liquid-origin cirrus, 3) validation
of cloud forecasts and satellite products, 4) assessment of
contrail predictability, and 5) direct observations of
contrail cirrus and their distinction from natural cirrus.
Hence, ML-CIRRUS provides a comprehensive dataset on cirrus
in the densely populated European midlatitudes with the
scope to enhance our understanding of cirrus clouds and
their role for climate and weather.},
