29. 1.2D-S measurements in SPARTICUS and MacPex appear to be reliable. Horizontal and vertical channels are in good agreement. Based on one comparison, both WB-57 2D-S and HVPS particle concentrations are slightly lower than Lear, but time differential in cloud penetration may explain difference. 2.HVPS concentration measurements appear to be lower relative to 2D-S in MacPex. HVPS concentrations in both SPARTICUS and MacPex (and 2D-P in SPARTICUS) appear to be lower than 2D-S when max particle size < ~1 to 2 mm. 3.SPEC FCDP concentration measurements in MacPex are in phase with 2D-S small particle measurements, but lower concentration values and PSD’s are suspect. DMT CDP measurements in SPARTICUS (when the probe appears to be working) are in phase but much higher than 2D-S. PSD’s are suspect. STRONGLY ENCOURAGED 4.Users are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to plot PSD’s from each probe and examine overlap to determine suitability before using or combining PSD’s for analysis.Summary
