In a major field campaign in 2020, Dr. Raphaela Vogel who is now at Universitt Hamburg?s Center for Earth System Research and Sustainability (CEN) and an international team from theLaboratoire de Mtorologie Dynamiquein Paris and theMax Planck Institute for Meteorologyin Hamburg analyzed observational data they and others collected in fields of cumulus clouds near the Atlantic island of Barbados.
