Target Separation and Classification using 11.B2 Cloud Radar Doppler-Spectra Conclusions / Outlook Plankton detection works good (in most cases). Melting layer detection has to be improved. Separation between rain and cloud has to be improved. More target types. Investigate double peaks with different LDR
