This research is a continuation of analyses of previously obtained         field observations in winter clouds over the northern Colorado                  Rockies.  The goals are to characterize and describe microphysical              processes taking place within natural and seeded clouds for various             types of weather systems as they develop and move over the Rocky                Mountains.  A unique combination of tools including radar, aircraft,            upper air data, dual-wavelength radiometers, polarized lidar, surface           observations and numerical models will be used.                                      The results of this investigation will increase knowledge of many          aspects of mountain cloud processes including: understanding the                potential of water supply augmentation by weather modification;                 improved mountain weather forecasts; aircraft operations in mountain            clouds; and evaluation of environmental issues related to cloud and             snow chemistry.
