Thanks Patrick and Simon for the suggestions. I still need to look into these examples more in detail, but at a quick glance it seems a good starting point to experiment with. And yes, these controlfiles seem to be available only in the development version of ARTS, but I assume I can use them with the latest stable version as well. Thanks again,

In particular, there is a pnd field in the file controlfile controlfiles/artscomponents/radar/testdata/pnd_field.xml Alternatively, you can let ARTS compute the PND field for you by defining scattering species with corresponding PSDs. An example of how this is done can be found in the controlfiles controlfiles/artscomponents/radar/scatsolvercomp/TestScatSolvers.arts*. I hope this helps you to get started with the calculations otherwise don't hesitate to ask. Regards, Simon *This is the case in the development version of ARTS. I am not sure whether these were available already in the latest release. ________________________________ From: arts_users.mi-boun...@mailman.rrz.uni-hamburg.de<mailto:arts_users.mi-boun...@mailman.rrz.uni-hamburg.de> <arts_users.mi-boun...@mailman.rrz.uni-hamburg.de<mailto:arts_users.mi-boun...@mailman.rrz.uni-hamburg.de>> on behalf of PAOLO VEGLIO <paolo.veg...@ssec.wisc.edu<mailto:paolo.veg...@ssec.wisc.edu>> Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2019 5:26:50 PM To: arts_users.mi@lists.uni-hamburg.de<mailto:arts_users.mi@lists.uni-hamburg.de> Subject: [arts-users] cloudy simulations with ARTS Hello, I’m currently trying to simulate measurements for the Ice Cloud Imager (ICI) that will be on board the EUMETSAT Polar System - Second Generation (EPS-SG) satellite using ARTS. With the help of some of the controfiles in the classroom_exercises folder I was able to create clear sky ICI spectra. Now I’d be interested in adding clouds to my ICI simulations, but I’m struggling with the setup of the controlfiles. I downloaded the “StandardHabits” database but I couldn’t find any template to help me write the particle density number file that is required along with the scattering properties. Would it be possible to have a sample pnd file and maybe also a controlfile to make sure I’m setting everything up correctly? Thanks in advance for any help with this.
