Two cases of clouds over the TP (left panel) and ECP (right panel) detected by CPR and Lidar. (a) and (d): location of the tracks (black solid line) over different elevation area (color shading); (b) and (e): radar reflectivity measured in dBZ (color shading) along the tracks; and (c) and (f): vertical stratification of the clouds, L1 to L4 represent the separate cloud layers from bottom to top.
