35 Microphysical Properties 35
36 Conclusions Observations Long term Well defined annual cycle occurring in 50% to 85% of the time. Macrophysical properties, rainfall and wind direction patterns indicate deep convection and the transport from other regions as its main source 24% of the clouds are subvisual, 42% are optically thin and 35% of them are cirrus stratus, with a change only in JJA, showing more aged clouds 36
37 Conclusions Observations IOP2 Higher occurrence of clouds compared to 2011/12. Apparent difference in the macrophysical properties between Embrapa and Tiwa sites. approximately the same optiacal depth for T0e and T2, with about 65% considered as thin clouds. T3 results needs further validations. The distribution of lidar ratio showed a wide range of values indicating thick plaques and long columns as the main composition of ice crystal. However, the behavior with temperature needs further investigation 37
