Short summary
Macrophysical and microphysical properties of clouds and their evolution during the initial phase of marine cold air outbreaks in the Arctic are studied with a focus on cloud thermodynamic phase partitioning and phase transitions. To this end, high-resolution quasi-Lagrangian observations of the hyperspectral and polarized imaging system specMACS during the HALO-(AC)3 campaign are combined with backward trajectories. Six cold air outbreaks with varying strengths are analyzed and compared.
