Cloud-drop sampler
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-004453
An instrument designed to collect samples of cloud water droplets for chemical analysis or to measure their size distribution. These devices are typically mounted on aircraft or ground-based platforms in cloudy environments. The collected samples provide insights into cloud chemistry, aerosol-cloud interactions, and precipitation formation processes.
