We are currently at the University of Leeds for the next CloudSense meeting! It's great to see so many people together and we are excited about hearing all the presentations over the next couple of days.
Southern Ocean Clouds Science flying from Rothera in #Antarctica with Mike Flynn, Dan Smith, Floor van den Heuvel, Tom Lachlan-Cope, Jonathan Witherstone, Drew Robertson and #IceColdKaty

Great talk from @SamMPhase on the @CloudSenseNERC #MPhase and her work on regional modelling of the flight campaign cases.
Run the model (CASIM) and then comparing to aircraft data to investigate how our INP measurements impact the model output.

DCMEX - July
We supported #DCMEX @CloudSenseNERC to sample developing cumulus clouds over the Magdalena Mountains in New Mexico, USA. This research will help us understand how clouds are affected by climate change and how they might affect severe weather worldwide.
New #PhDposition with a supervisor collaboration across two @CloudSenseNERC projects #DCMEX (Alan Blyth and @DecFinney ) and #CIRCULATES (Hugo Lambert and @AnnaRMackie ) along with @NOCnews too!

Flight C331 heading back to base after a double header of science flights today for the #MPhase project. Targeting a cold air outbreak sweeping south down the Labrador sea.
Just a few days left before the team return to the UK, time for a couple more sorties.

Coming to the end of an incredible 4 weeks in Happy Valley-Goose Bay for the #MPhase measurement campaign, where I’ve been taking #aerosol samples on the @faam146 aircraft. This project is part of @CloudSenseNERC, aiming to reduce uncertainty in climate sensitivity. – at Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador

Sad to be departing Goose Bay,leaving the #MPhase team just as the forecast finally turns towards Cold Air Outbreaks which are the primary atmospheric feature we are studying as part of the @NERCscience @CloudSenseNERC programme on cloud/climate sensitivities

Sitting in the hangar waiting to join the @faam146 for the second sortie of the day for the #MPhase project. This morning's flight track, we're now doing a similar flight but rotated clockwise about 90° to capture downstream stratus clouds in the same airmass (Semi-Lagrangian)

Science team gearing up for the second #MPhase flight. Flight C320 will be another flight to sample aerosols up the Labrador coast and then returning at higher altitudes to sample cloud properties.

The @FAAM146 team are flying over the Labrador Sea this week looking at how clouds form in cold air.
You can track the aircraft missions in real time via faam.ac.uk/gluxe/position/ - as Declan demonstrates.

First #MPhase science mission departed Goose Bay, mainly a full shakedown flight with some aerosol sampling opportunities along the way. Forecast not great, southerly flows rather than the desired Cold Air Outbreak flows from the north. 1/2

A team of scientists have embarked on a flight campaign over the Labrador Sea to study how clouds form and develop in cold air.
The four-week campaign with @FAAM146 will look specifically at clouds that contain both ice and water particles.

Last week the FAAM Airborne Laboratory made its way to Canada to study mixed phase cloud formation over the Labrador Sea.
These clouds contain a mixture of ice and water particles, and play an important role in the earth’s climate.

The #MPhase INP analytical facility is established. Top work from @MarkDTarn and @Polly__Foster
The full project team has initial briefing at airport tomorrow and shakedown flight(s) planned for Tuesday.

First day of #MPhase after long travel day starts in Jungle Jim's and then a wee road trip to the end of the North West River Road. Then back for mission science planning, wx not quite playing ball yet, Tuesday is hopeful for 1st science flight
