Short summary
This study evaluates the vertical distribution of particle shape (VDPS) method for identifying particle shapes and riming/aggregation using in-situ and multi-frequency radar data from the CLOUDLAB campaign. Despite non-Rayleigh scattering effects, results show that the VDPS method using a Ka-band scanning cloud radar in slanted depolarization ratio (SLDR) mode is effective for hydrometeor classification.
